I still remember Zoë Keating commenting on torrents of her album on the pirate bay back in the day. Free marketing tbh.
"STEAL IT. Steal away. Steal and steal and steal some more and give it to all your friends." - Trent Reznor, after record labels jacked up NIN album prices. Then later clarified the best quality rips were on Oink (rip 😢)
Makes me think of System of a Down's, "Steal This Album"
Weird Al's Don't Download This Song was initially released as a free download too
