Well I think there is a bit of a generational divide here. Those under 30 for whom "ripping" and plagiarism seems to be a way of life and second nature...well that crowd don't see what the big deal is.On the other hand, for those of us over 30, who grew up in the "studio" and label days of classical music...I think the whole Joyce Hatto Scandal comes as a big shock. After all, we grew up in an era when music copyrights protected artists from such flagrant abuse as we are seeing in the Hatto scandal. We grew up in a era when music product could be trusted because no one would dare risk the fines and imprisonment that might result from stealing material from other artists, but apparently technology has now made this all too easy and too frequent an occurence for anyone to care.
Follow Ups:
even when there is obvious need and simple private usage, I consider and hesitate to burn and try to buy. I guess I did make cassettes of LP's for private usage. But younger folks (those under 35 or 40) never think twice of copying everything on digital media.
