OT: Recording Industry Ripoff

[Captain Kwok]

There's nothing wrong with seeking out independent artists, which in most cases by defination are 'label' free. Anyhow, most P2P networks actually try and promote the legimate use of their networks for downloading approved files for these sorts of artists.

In most cases, a given genre will have websites where you can download independent artists of that style. Usually an interweb search will bring up said sites. Some have fees per song, while others allow free downloads hoping that you might some of the artists' albums.
