We need to realize now that the large record companies are fundamentally opposed to the interests of musicians and music fans everywhere. They dislike music, they dislike musicians and they dislike fans. The only thing they do like is the money music can bring them. The record companies cannot be allowed to continue like this. We need to boycott this corrupt and evil system.
Bands can end their record contracts and become independent.
Fans can insist that their favorite bands offer all music over the Internet, as the Smashing Pumpkins did. Napster only offers freedom for both musicians and fans. You and I know this, but that is something the record companies can never learn.
