i kinda take both sides on this argument. my argument for the record companies is this... they're a legit business selling a product. there is NOTHING wrong with that. if you don't like the company, don't buy their products, and just because you don't like the company doesn't mean you should steal their product. the artists chose to sign onto their label, knowing how much of the profits the record company would take. they sign onto a big label for the exposure. from there they can do live shows, promotions, advertisements (for example, iPod, etc.). We all know the record companies are gonna have to change sooner or later, but saying the record companies are evil? they're a totally legit business.. (like any large corporation there's some shady stuff going on behind the scenes though.) personally i think people are getting mad at the wrong people. why not get mad at the artists? they're the ones who signed with the label.
