I find it hysterical that nobody has yet defended Sony or faulted Korn for their cry of piracy as stated in my post.
I don't think the "All Piracy BAD!" folks quite know what to make of that situation where piracy was clearly good for the artists.
Here, and other places where this has been discussed, the anti-piracy crowd completely ignores all quotes of the Korn vs Sony case and will say nothing about it because it undermines the whole argument that piracy hurts the artist.
Piracy hurts the industry, and, when used properly, can aid the artist.
And I don't think anybody in their right mind could defend Sony in that situation. Korn was being held in artistic slavery. There was some serious dutch door action going on.
Not a huge fan of Korn or anything, but I am really facinated at how that situation turned out.

All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
