I think artists and the label manufacturers should get the money they deserve so they can get onto bringing out more and more tunes without any problems

I don't really have a problem with the unlicensed cd/tape packs because it gives the artists more of a chance to let people hear their tunes and it will make them go out and buy them anyway, so it could be classed as promotion. It also lets up and coming DJ's that play at events get noticed, cause people say (Who's that? he's pretty good, wouldn't mind getting a mix of his!)

SickPig, I disagree.
Artists that spend enormous amounts of time making records deserve every penny. And they need it too. For Scotty, sales are his bread and butter. If he didn't get enough sales, he wouldn't have money for rent/food/undies/buying new gear/etc....
I think its good that the artists get paid, but also a downside because the wouldn't be as many CD's mixes and thus the distribution of hardcore would be diminshed.
This thing has its pluses and its downside.

If artists get royalties for the tracks of theirs that are played then everyone is gonna get scott brown syndrome and just play their own stuff all night - why play someone elses tunes if you can get paid for playing your own. This will be detrimental on the quality of sets - everyone will be doing their own live PA. Tapepacks have been going for years - they are a massive part of the culture, and problems like this have never arisen before. I think it's a sign of hardcore getting bigger, but also getting a little bit stuck up itself. It will reach the point where all the best sets will be played by up and coming dj's who don't give a shit and just play the tunes they think are wicked rather than worrying who is gonna get paid.
Seize the moment

Free downloads don't bother me because most hardcore fanatics would much sooner have a nice official CD than some mp3 on their pc...

i think illegal downloads only make the hardcore scene bigger. how many people download free mp3's and how many download ones they have to pay for? If it all goes legal the music wont get out to as many people, which is a bad thing IMO

I say keep selling the tapes,cd's whatever. I have been buying since early 90's and think its a good thing! Plus i think hardcore artists are paid enuff or they wouldnt keep bringing out these wicked cd,s. 'How else can i say, it i dont speak no other languages, so buckle up cos it,s gonna get Bumpy'

What ive heard the artists dont get shit, its pretty much "charity" from their end to produce the tracks. So its rather stupid to say they are paid enough.
