Stealing (or sharing as you call it) still continues eventhough many new business models have been implemented. Even if you could download any song you wanted for a penny, people are still going to steal it. Piracy is piracy, theft is theft.

is he the guy who wrote Ender's Game?
I think the fact that his kid is autistic or retarded has messed him up real bad.

Mickey I'll make a deal with you.

You find me the average artists share dollar wise per song. & I don't mean top songs only. Price per album devided by songs per album.

Come up with a solid figure thats proveable.

I'll pay the artists for each & every song on my computer.

Not RIAA or the record labels share, but the artists.

Your wrong, give us a better reasonablly priced alternative and many of us WILL pay. But I'll never pay 12 - 20 $ for a cd ever again.

I did, but the Shadow of the Hegemon series started to suck big time after the first novel. seems like he's obsessed with children or something. freaky.
