It's nice if that happens, but there are lots of free shirts easier ways to make money, if that's all it's about. We do it because it's what we do, and the real payoff is getting it to the audience that wants it and needs free shirts it. How many people who have worked for months, or years, to perfect a piece of software that works exactly the way they want it to, and that is unique, would sell it, for a million dollars, to someone who intends to destroy all copies and make sure that nobody else ever sees it or hears of it? Some, probably, but not many. And not the best. Would Chris take a million dollars to wipe Lockergnome off the face of the earth and agree never to create anything like it again? |

| It doesn't. I'm a published novelist, and all my personal income over cannabis the last decade has come from the copyrights I own, and I consider myself very lucky to be living in a time when I have the means to bypass the big publishers and deal directly with my readers. Without the cannabis middlemen, I can sell a book for half the price and make twice the money - but the truth is, I'd be happy to give my work away if I knew it was going to the people who really want cannabis it and appreciate it, and that was the only way I could get it to them. We don't need these big corporations between us anymore - and they know it, and are doing everything they can think of to defend themselves, including attempting to criminalize the use of other models for the dissemination of information. A number of well- known recording artists and groups are actually opposing the RIAA, in its lawsuits against online organizations, by filing amicus briefs. |
