GUEST,Working Musician Free Rare Old Folk Album Downloads (352* d) RE: Free Rare Old Folk Album Downloads 04 Jan 10

There's been a fair few ding-dongs on Time Has Told Me comments boards regarding the ethics of illegal downloading, in general and from sites such as THTM. Although they have now removed links to Nic Jones downloads (of his readily available recordings) they'll only do it if you spot it and ask them.

I agree absolutely with Ian Anderson's last line -

"They're not the only ones doing this, but I'm annoyed by the way they hide behind the righteous cloak of being "enthusiasts". Enthusiasts have respect and don't steal."

Websites and website such as these seem to be ran by people who love music but have no regard for musicians welfare whatsoever. I'm amazed to see people on Mudcat advocating visiting it and - yikes - defending it.
