Interesting survey! As someone working on social media with artists like Barry Manilow, Tom Wopat, Lorna Luft, and Matt Dusk - I would like to hear your results.

Haven't done the survey, but- the big acts don't suffer so much as the little or in-betwixt ones, of course. The Stones or AB/CD or Sony can afford to go after people n' shut them down if they want. This keeps the lower artists exactly where they are - lower income, and I think the plan is to keep it that way indefinitely. I'd think twice about DLing tunes from an act that is not established, but the junk stores are full of billions of records, cds and tapes of this music, for pennies. I can't see paying full price for it a third time, personally.
