What is really 'dumb' is your reading comprehension (while I hated typing that, why would you attack me????). I wrote "They should charge the musicians for 'advertising' their music!" What I think someone might interpret from my statement is that a store playing a band's music should charge the band money for advertising their music (because they are exposing their music). I also think the same way regarding wearing t-shirts with company logos on them and things like that. I don't know why the music industry does these types of things, considering they pay for advertising! They should push people to play the music, maybe that will expose the music to customers.
In case you have never read any of my posts, my favorite bands are Tool, Slayer and a bunch of other harder bands. I don't drive a chevy, but I do own a couple of Subarus.
Let me guess, your little sister hacked your Calgarypuck account?
