Music and Film industries "GONE!"

Music and film industries have been brought to their knees through greedy people not wanting to pay.

Now the same thing is happening to books, Why do people think they have the right to "steal" something that would have had to be paid for pre-internet days?

Soon the people making films, music and books like stop, and then all you little bitches will be crying!

>it's easy to construe that as an attempt to justify the piracy
Yes, if you twist and bend the meaning so that it fits your purpose beyond what was actually meant and said.

>you are trying to downplay the damage it may be doing to the industry.
Again, yes, to bring it in line with reality. The entertainment industry is "on it's knees" as a direct result of piracy, this is not reality for reasons stated in posts you have addressed.

>Will the music be as good if its mostly being done in home studios by people who don't think they'll ever make it big?
Why not? There's no reason why it can't be. Compare existing low budget, high talent, indie material to big label, 'more money than sense or taste' shit and see for yourself.
