while ppl debate it ppl still aint buyin like they used to.
artists can be mad (we are entitled to that) or spend that energy figuring shit out 'cause it will NEVER be the way it was. we are not gonna change 2-3 generations and beyond of fans who are satisfied with dling and catching they fave artists shit on youtube rather than cop a cd.

and i hate the assumption that just because you aint sell everyone is bumping your bootleg. a lot of times if the output/singles suck or an artist is steady flopping fans will get over them fast and not bother anymore with them. Just like artists gotta make $ regular consumers gotta think about $$ too. so whether dling is "justified" or not fans not buying music as much anymore is the reality. my advice is to be more clever.
