In today's Age:
"Australia's biggest musical acts are crying poor in a new documentary that seeks to discourage people from obtaining music illegally and change the public's perception that they live a high life of riches and glamour.
Artists featured on the video include Silverchair, Powderfinger, the Veronicas, Operator Please, Jimmy Barnes, Evermore, Gyroscope, Frenzal Rhomb, Grinspoon, Phrase, Human Nature, Mahalia Barnes, Damien Leith, Anthony Callea, Weapon X, Ken Hell and the Dawn Collective."
Now show me someone who admits to downloading a Human Nature album, and I'll show you someone who doesn't know the meaning of music. I don't quite remember when Human Nature went from being a boring pop group to a boring Motown covers band, but unless it's Mother's Day every single week, I don't see many people BitTorrenting 'Get Ready - The Songs of Motown III' before presenting their well thought out gift in the form of a burnt CD.
Even if you were to download Motown music, why wouldn't you go and get the original stuff? Not that I'm condoning doing so, but surely the original would give you a far superior appreciation of the subject matter.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to download the latest Ashlee Simpson 'record' so that I may burn it to disc. It appears I'm all out of coasters.
