"Piracy? The biggest pirates have been the record companies. The people running the record labels are lawyers and accountants, and they could be selling Brillo pads for all they care. It’s not about the art at all. So when people download a song, if it’s a good song, people want the artist. People worship Eric Clapton or Ray Charles. What they do is bigger than any song. Downloading music gives people a chance to be exposed to an artist, not just a Brillo-pad manufacturer."

— Chuck D of the Beastie Boys
