Sure, that's what I do. But it's still amazing that greed driven labels are setting hurdles themselves to get the money. And ocassionally I can't find some rare versions in the seas, so still would like to just pay.
Yeah, same with music. So often I want to give my damn money to artists by buying albums, but "not available in your country". If I go to UK or DE store, I get "your card is not local", even though it's not an issue with 99% other products. Come on.
Is soulseek the same as torrenting in terms of copyright trolls or are you less likely to run into legal notices as it's maybe less known?
