techdirt.com :With Megaupload seized by the feds and everyone else even slightly involved seized by Anonymous, man-without-a-label Jonathan Coulton stepped into the breach and tweeted what we all only wish we were thinking: (If you can't read it, Coulton said: "Any other musicians notice that ever since they shut down MegaUpload, the money has just been POURING in?")
And the opposite is also true (no download =/= sale): I used to download a lot of movies, I confess. Then my ISP sent me a warning saying that they caught me downloading a file illegally, and that if I persisted I could be sued. Since then, I haven't downloaded a single movie. And you know what? I HAVEN'T BOUGHT A SINGLE ONE EITHER. I used to buy movies when I downloaded others. Now, I just don't watch movies anymore.
And back to the original point: I looked everywhere in store for the Silent Comedy album, Common Faults, but I just couldn't find it. I'd love to give these guys my money, but I had to download their album because I couldn't find it in store (fuck iTunes). But you know what? 1. If I ever come across it in a store, you can bet I'll buy it instantly; and, 2. If they ever hold a concert near where I am, you can bet I'll be there. All because I downloaded their album illegally.
On a side note, I read that Kim Dotcom could actually walk if they can;t extradite him to the united stated. I hope that happens.
Maybe you should take that to people who care and im sure they would totally agree lol.
They will get the extradition.
lol this is gonna hurt the industry more than piracy will.
