torrentfreak.com — If you can?t beat pirates, join them. This is Playlouder?s philosophy, a music download service that allows subscribers to download music from BitTorrent and other filesharing networks, while reimbursing the copyright owners. The concept sure is interesting, but the current setup is naive, flawed and doomed to fail.

The problem is that even a moderately successful band will make more money under the present system than would be possible by running their own websites.

How true! The fact is the even when presented with reasonably priced legal alternatives people STILL choose to 'pirate' because its free.I like emusic.com - its VERY cheap and only deals with Indie labels, meaning none of the corporate s**t that you get on the majors is on there.
