Interesting responses. There is the aspect that sharing your recordings will lead people into buying more but then if you share everything (at high bitrates?) then aren't they just gonna download everything? I can see the point of giving copies to your friends because you want them to enjoy it. But what do you give them?

The legality of it for me is not the question. I guess it is how deeply I feel for a particular artist, how much they have given me musically and what that has meant to me, and basically how much I respect an artist.

Of course, just because I've bought all the CDs doesnt mean I am allowed to share them all over my favourite P2P apps but I was just trying to ascertain whether its crossed Dirt's minds feelings of guilt, respect, legality or actually crossed their minds at all.

If you want to share Underworld, why share the stuff thats available in the shops, for instance? I can see Leon's point of view in this respect. If you want to get people interested in Underworld you don't need to give them commercially available stuff (is maybe his point, i dont know).

just rambling thoughts here.
