Artists
by Marc on August 2, 2006
From the site:
The British record industry's trade association, the BPI, is threatening music fans who download 'illegally' with legal action unless they pay sizeable fines.
Flowerburger Records fully supports the proper payment of musicians and the creators of music but believes there are better ways of achieving this than suing fans.
Fans generally want payment for musicians but cannot always afford to buy CDs or downloads and will therefore naturally use p2p file-sharing and other downloading methods to listen to music. The music industry is a creative industry that should be exploring ways to earn money for its artists from p2p, not using the destructive force of litigation.
We believe the public should be free from prosecution for downloading or sharing music.
