(idm) MP3 madness

I really don`t think Warp were making a distinction between available and
unavailable tracks when they asked BlagJesusBlahWhatever to remove stuff
from his site.  It`s the fact that high quality, freely available copies of
Ae`s music exists at all that worries them, and I guess they think they can
stem the piracy tide by scaring small-scale MP3`ers into submission (and it
worked, didn`t it?)  Personally, I don`t bother with MP3; not because I`ve
got a guilty concience, but because I can`t be arsed to wait for the
fuckers to download.  
  Piracy will always exist, because everyone (myself included) wants
something for nothing.  You can be sure, though, that record companies will
always find a way to "get theirs".  
  Now stop grumbling, it`s too nice a day for it!
