Am I wrong for doing this???
my sister-in-law called me and was excited that she heard the new Pearl Jam song, The Fixer and she downloaded it from iTunes... she asked to burn my CD. I told her that since she is at Target several times a week, that she should pick up a copy instead and support the band. I even told her that if she hated the album, i would buy it back from her... to insure that her satisfaction was guaranteed! My wife spoke to her sister and then called me to give me hell about that...
Am I wrong? And please dont tell me that copying CD's is illegal... i know that but, we have all done that in the past. so please no pious responses...

Interesting thought to ponder. I don't burn CD's, but if I did, I would feel comfortable burning copies for someone who had absolutely no interest in buying the album. That way you are promoting the band and introducing a new fan to the fold.
However, if I had a friend who was planning on buying the album and I said, "forget it, I'll just burn you one", then that would be wrong IMO.
Those are just my personal thoughts, I try not to judge others on choices they make, although it's hard sometimes.
Well I think threads in general are ridiculous for grown adults....
but that doesn't stop us, now does it?

If you want to support the band, buy her a copy and send it to her.

In the grand scheme of things, a CD is one of the best values out there. For 12 bucks, you get something that might give you a hundred hours of enjoyment.
Very true

My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

I ripped a bunch of cds for people that didn't even ask for them.
Spread the Jam.
So why be satisfied?
