<div> </div>Well, I disagree again. If AC/DC doesn't want me to make a copy of their albums, I will anyway copy them for free. And I think I'm entitled to, because it's like copying an idea, it's free, zero costs. If artists want money, they have to find it in services or products that have more than zero costs, like a CD, DVD, or a concert.<br>

</div>I agree, that a copy is no lost sale.<br>
<br>
But I also think, that an artist should receive some money if someone copies his work without explicit permission - unless the artist allows free re-usage.This position comes mainly from respect. I respect the artists work, and if an artist does not want me, to share his work with my friends, I just look for another artist who does so.<br>
