The Beatles? What's so special about THEM? Stream 'em like anything else. Like piss.
"When the streams come, they ruin all the sales. Like piss slopped into pails...when the streams come..."
The magic of music involves paying attention to it. Owning it. Making a special effort to put a disc into or onto a machine.
Oh well. It's more convenient to pay a little to a giant corporation that screws the artist. Or pay NOTHING and have commercials between the songs now and then...with no disc jockey to hip you to indie good stuff or be a friendly voice.
I suppose the excuse for piracy will still be the same: why give money to The Suits. Spotify doesn't really support the artists any more than the record labels did. So let US steal the music and make a profit from Jerkyshare give us a nickel for every 50 illegal downloads, or a Paypal "tip jar" on the blog. And don't forget the "nice comments" for the Blogfather or the Zinfart.
Hey, how about streaming piracy sites? Even better. Just go to the website, listen to all you want, and nevermind the spyware that's beating your bootleg version of Norton and infecting your computer with programs that automatically steal your passwords and send your intimate photos to 4Chan. Wheee.
"Dear Sir or Madam, would you steal my stuff? It took me years to make, but what the fuck..."
