Not missed... clarified. He said "Downloading only produces shit like Ashlee Simpson because her backers have lots of coin." I took a little different direction because I think wether P2P downloading existed or not, I think these 'crap artists' would be out there no matter what. I didnt say that he said downloading earns revenue for the backers of such artists. Actually I said that dowloading doesnt affect them at all becuase they have the money no matter what. I never said it earned thier payroll. Besides, if you thoroughly read what I posted, I agreed with him on supporting artists by purchasing thier CD's instead of dowloading them. It's all there. Read it.
