I CANT BELIEVE HOW HARD IT IS FOR SOME PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND MY POSITION IN THIS DEBATE ABOUT 'FREE' RECORDED MUSIC…

OF COURSE I APPRECIATE THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMMERCIAL VALUE AND ARTISTIC VALUE

BUT THAT DOESNT CHANGE MY ARGUMENT

AS IT ISNT THE POINT

(AND FOR FUCKS SAKE…

THIS DEBATE ISNT ABOUT ME/THE CURE!

IMAGINE IF YOU CAN SOMEONE JUST STARTING OUT…

I AM NOT DEFENDING 'OLD BUSINESS MODELS'

I HAVE ARGUED AGAINST 'BIG MUSIC BUSINESS' AND THEIR MODELS FOR AS LONG AS I HAVE BEEN MAKING MUSIC…
