Musicians sign motion to push for restricted bandwidth for downloaders
Fri 25 Sep, 2009
OK this is getting annoying now. All these poor musicians getting angry that the outrageously excessive income stream they receive for not doing very much is slowing down. God forbid they might have to actually start doing more "work" like playing shows. Or they could try persuading the industry to charge reasonable prices, but of course they wouldn't get as big a cut then would they. It makes me sick. And all this rubbish about it damaging up and coming bands, preventing them from breaking through? Ask the Arctic Monkeys if they wish no-one had ever file-shared "I bet you look good on the dancefloor"

Anyone can use studio equipment to sound good then lipsync to it. This is what's wrong with music these days.

It's not so much the "mindless" slagging off that needs to stop, it's the "mindless" defence of unoriginal formulaic bands that needs to stop.

By Jove I think he's got it! "So nothing that's popular is good then?" That's generally how it works. It doesn't mean the band were never good, but when it becomes more popular, it's nearly always because it's been diluted and crafted to sell more. The rule that almost always works is that the album before a band's breakthrough album is nearly always their best by far. Go on, think of some bands and try it. I wonder when the last time was that someone bacame a fan of Oasis because they heard them and thought "that's awesome"? Instead of being told they're good by someone they judge to be "cooler" than them and jumping on the bandwagon?

lol hilarious!! He's gotta be saying this deliberately right? He must know how ridiculous it sounds for someone like him to accuse anyone of selling out!? He should know all about mediocrety making megabucks. And the new Kings of Leon album is infinitely better than anything Oasis have spat out over the last decade

Of course he has, it's akin to printing money, the more god awful drivel he releases, the richer he gets. So when his solo album comes out and it's exactly the same as every Oasis album, with different words over the top, will people realise they suck? Probably not methinks

This isn't sarcastic, but does Noel Gallagher actually have an NME reporter with him all day every day? The "News" stories posted everyday are so frequent and boring they must just stem from idle chatter.He should spend less time expressing opinions on everything to people that don't care what he thinks, and more time working out how he can write some original music.

the right to free speech is a joke. It only applies if you want to say something that won't offend anyone, which doesn't make it free speech at all. I apply the same logic to this as racism. It's not ok to be racist just because you have freedom of speech, so in the same way it isn't ok to disrespect our monarchy.
