Unfortunately, you can't reinvent the wheel, people will always use technology to get music for frre. When I was a kid, I would use my mono Radio - cassette recorder, to record the top - 20, on a sunday evening. I was too young then to realise it was illegal, or unfair to the artists. What I did know was that it was cheaper and easier than buying it from a record shop. It's no different to what the kids are doing today, they're just downloading instead. Perhaps the record companies should've spent their time, stopping the manufactures building all these gagets, if they don't like people useing them.
