[Dixielandjazz] copycats

Hi all,

Four jazz club members at a recent festival bought 1 CD from me; they
reached into the pockets and purses respectively and fished out $5 each. Of
course they were going to copy them! If you add the blank CD ink, paper and
jewel case you come to about $3.00. Total cost if you only burn 3 = $9,
total cost for their project $14 that means they equated the intellectual
property and original artwork, recording time and effort and investment to
$6 in total or $2 each.  
Mind you, if they bothered to go to the website below regularly they would
find full versions of tunes of my band to copy for nothing!


regards,
