Wired News: Rock Stars: Don't Rip Us Off, Man

Interesting now that I'm in a band how my perception of music piracy will change. I've always been an advocate of not downloading commercially available material. My gray areas still include out of print material. Personally I think those should be fair game, however I understand the value of limited edition runs and fan club type releases and am not sure how those should be handled.

Live music on the other hand I strongly believe is fair game. And if I have my band's approval I'll seed our live material through forums like http://etree.org/ and http://www.furthurnet.com/.
