I am saying that the individual artists that claim to support mp3's and file trading softwares are merely supporting it because they received millions of dollars in stock options in the internet bubble days.
Money is all it boils to. Alanis thought that she can flip that $14 million stock option into $200-300 million easily in those booming internet bubble days. That's a lot more than she can make from CD sales and concert proceeds.
>>>No artist wants to be locked away from their works.
The artists lost their control in their own music several million steps before they were pressed into CD's. The big studio producers from headquarter already control much of the final say into how the music is going to sound.
