[net.records] Another view of home taping

greg (03/04/83)

I find it very difficult to sympathize with the recording
industry's plight in regard to home taping, for much the
same reason as many; many of the prerecorded tapes now on
sale are sh**.  I personally went through two tapes of 
"Hot Rocks" (at $13.00 a shot) before I wised up and bought
the disc.  It is more of a dog-eat-dog world out there,
compared to our Ivory tower types, and I don't think the
recording industry would hesitate a moment if they could
eliminate home recording and still sell shoddy tapes to
the public.
