One thing I don’t understand — and this is not a criticism of our friends and fans, I’m just really puzzled — is why people don’t download our music. People say really nice things about us, shake our hands after a show, help us out online, but downloads? <0.5% of other actions (plays, likes, shares, whatever).
I mean I download anything I can get my hands on, and usually that involves hijacking the headers from some lame Flash player, but I understand that I “have a problem”. It doesn’t make sense to me to say I like this, I want to see them live, I even go back and stream this a couple of times, but I’m not gonna download this free track and put it on my iPod… and this is exactly what people are doing. Help me out here.
edit: Yay, angry anon ask must mean I’m doing something right. I certainly don’t think we deserve any more (or less) than what we’re getting; I’m just interested in the psychology of it.

Well, I for once am guilty for that mainly cos I would prefer to get my hands on a physical copy of one’s music. There’s so much more to one’s craft for eg. that really speaks alot about their thoughts not only in their music but also the album. (Y)
