Have/had these types of Friends?

>yo user, you actually pay for your music? youtube + adblock baby, all you need. why limit yourself to the original when you have to access to the original AND its covers and remixes? scrub
>me: okay dickanus, but if you want to keep listening to the bands and singers you want, wouldn't you want to support their work?
>lol, maybe they should've gotten a real job and played music as a hobby. if they were passionate about it, then they wouldn't care for money.
I get headaches everytime when this shit comes up. This is why music as a commodity means fuck all now; the majority have little thought for what goes into music production and don't seem to care to know. They don't mind spending $12 for a 5 min coffee drink but leer at having to spend $12 for an album that can potentially last for decades.

Even if I continue to do my part, it won't mean shit in the bigger picture.

I am that type of friend

based

You're and idiot and a Jew. Most musicians make their money via concerts and merchandising. Most of the record/CD/mp3 sales don't go to them.

YouTube or Spotify with adblock, why would I even want to pay for music nowadays?

I am that friend but also I buy from bandcamp for artists who actually deserve it.

Give whoever wants to buy and who wants to download
What do they care about losing a few dollars

I couldn't care less if professional artists got paid. I wish they'ed all fuck off to be honest. Some guy doing it as a hobby is just as good as a knob head that does it for the fame and money. Let the music industry die, fuck it all.

go ahead and shell out 12 bucks for an album where 9 bucks go to the distributor, 2 bucks go to the publisher, and 50 cent to the tax man

if that makes you feel better

>hurr durr I see the bigger picture, yall a bunch of myopes

no you fucking dont.

literally me except i wouldn't pay for overpriced coffee either
