Dear Sony, no one wants to pay for your music

This justifies my decisions to download music. Does it do the same for you?

I download your music because you manipulate your prices and people still can’t afford your overpriced CDs and DVDs.

I download your music because I prefer to pay the artists by going to their concerts (they get far better shares that way).

I download your music because it’s easier.

I download your music because I don’t respect companies that don’t respect their customers.

I download your music because even though I run Mac and Linux boxes, I don’t want to give money to a company that installs windows rootkits on other people’s PCs.

I download your music because your music business model is wrong.

I download your music because you don’t listen to the buyer.

I download your music because I don’t want to go through 2 forms and a crap page to uninstall the spyware you install on my PC.
