Boykott the (traditional) Music Industry!

The Chaos Computer Club is calling for an all out boycott of all music that comes from the evil music industry and that is registered by the even more evil GEMA. Attac has also gotten into the offensive for music consumer rights. Private copy and peer2peer come from heart. Destroying it with lawsuits will destroy part of our culture. If the music industry is so concerned with music sales then they shoudl produce higher quality (that is in style not in production technics) music rather then looking for someone else to blame. Turning on the (private)radio stations gives me shudders and I have stopped listening to airwave radio alletogether and switched to specialized online radio. The last CD I bought 4 years ago, I have not stopped buying music because I am sharing, I am not a music file-sharer (have downloaded maybe 5 songs in my lifetime) its because the music is utterly bad. The better music can be had from free internet labels that give you music for free alltogether and those who play live at a concert and make their living with that and use the cd as a promotional material as it should be! Its a flyer advertising what you can do, the rest happens on stage there is where you can earn your living there is where you show that you really work.
