Because it is.It doesn't matter whether or not they think it's worth money. The fact is, if you want to use something that you have to pay for, you should pay for it. I think DVDs are overpriced, but I'm not going to pirate them because I don't think they're worth that much money.

Does anyone know of any artists that just give away their music for free and just makes all of their money through touring and merchandise? The only person I know who does that is Pretty Lights, but I wanted to know if anyone knew any others.
No, pirating music is not okay.Pirating anything isn't okay.Piracy is a crime.
I'm listening to Death Grips right now. This is... Certainly different.

lol.Without piracy I wouldn't have found most of my favourite artists, whom after pirating one or two albums I then went on to legitimately buy them (and then some more), as well as t-shirts, live albums, gig tickets, etc...While this is anecdotal, this certainly applies to others, even my mother who isn't exactly tech-savvy and discovers music through piracy and then buys shit-tonnes of albums soon afterwards.Okay, that may have been anecdotal as well, but it shows it isn't just applying to an individual... This is also backed by several studies showing that pirates buy more content than non-piraters (percentages and magnitudes vary depending on where the research came from).They took a dive because either they sucked or they didn't spread the word about their music to get heard. The music industry itself that manage the whole thing are cancerous and don't really support artists unless they make it big or... well, making it big is the only way.
