I am re-posting these interviews from SXSW 2008, where I asked attendees about there music collecting habits.
There seems to be a general consensus among the people I spoke with. If you paid for the song in question on vinyl, cassette, or any other format, you are entitled to a ‘un-paid-for’ digital copy without moral consequence. Most feel that while transferring copies Peer to Peer is probably illegal, to do so when you just want to discover new music – or expose others to new music – is a good thing.
