you havent answered the question! you still have people making
money off of the artists despite not having done anything. i cant
see how this is justified by the demand but bootlegging by demand
isnt. either way you have someone who had nothing to do with the
record being made making money.
just like i dont buy many bootlegs, i dont pay money to collectors
for many records either. i want the artists to get my $$$, no one
else.
