One thing that's not out of date is the fact that no artist gets a single
dime from this place. Just because the government there won't join the
international community by prosecuting these violations, doesn't mean it's
OK to purchase from them. I'm no artist, but if I created something and put
it on the market, I'd be pissed if someone was making a living off it
without giving me some kind of cut. Just because Russia won't make a legal
issue of it, doesn't mean it's not still a moral issue. "Do unto others" and
stuff.
Personal to Stacy's mix tape: Ryan Adams' "New York New York" Great tuneful
rootsy rocker.
