While I respect artists, the biggest gift to an artist should be to be seen and/or heard and to be heard of. Fame and recognition. Not just “if I make this, how much money can I put in my bank acnt?”. While I may understand your argument from a struggling artist point of view, like from the people whom may only make a few sales and still struggle to pay their rent. I have no empathy whatsoever for those cast in movies that make more money in a day than I’ve made in my lifetime while doing much harder work that I have NO passion for. The great artists that take advantage of their skills can generally make a hell of a lot more than I’m making for real work so I’d hardly say they’re doing it “for free” . As I said, the struggling artists are the exception, to the ones that aren’t, good luck with that argument. To say it again, I don’t have any extra money these days so to pirate stuff or not, either way the artists will see no money from me(can’t get blood from a stone).
