It would be absolutely ludicrous for a rock-star to demand that people pay money for albums because the kids haven’t got that much money to pay for an album, so if they can find it for free, go ahead! But don’t do it on Oasis records though - because that’s against the law......Pinch as many Kaiser Chiefs as you like - and the Pigeon Detectives - but don’t nick any Oasis!” Wed 27 Aug 2008 06:08:37 GMT+1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/folk/2008/08/steve-knightley-on-embracing-p.html?page=0#comment0 Billy Bragg was talking the other Saturday morning to Mark Lamarr and Jo Brand about how downloading and CDR copying isn't all that different to recording singles from Pick of the Pops and making cassette tapes for friends. It is just that the technology has changed and it has all got easier. He didn't see much wrong with it either, in that it mainly leads to eventual sales.However, what he then pointed out was that in THIS World, Record Companies are doing far less work and the balance in the remuneration between them and the artist probably has to change.
