Nothing wrong with using the internet. I dont tend to pay for music on the internet. Nothing wrong with buying music though. Just another form of transmission.

The problem is having all of our folk venues dominated or at least made more expensive by the worship of pro musicians who drive the costs up, ration their music and take public moneys from more needy purposes.

We need to do what we can to lessen costs and improve access, strengthen transmission at the expense of entertainment

Of course there are some wonderful exceptions. But they are not the rule.
