Names obscured to protect the NAUGHTY PERSON

This showed up in my mailbox this morning:

Hello Waider,

I've just found your website accidentally, but I actually didn't read all of
the contents..:) From what I saw I can say that your'e a really interesting
person and you listen to good music too ;)
And as I have noticed you've got a single Boris Dlugosch - Never enough.
So I'm here with a little plea for you to rip the cd to mp3 and send to me
somehow :)
could you do that?
I am a good quality music fan so the quality of themusic, that can be found
on Kazaa or something like that, doesn't satisfy me.
I would gladly buy that cd, but in my home country - Lithuania, we don't
have such huge music shops where I could order some cd that they don't have
in stock.
I hope this little help won't be a big difficulty to you and you won't
refuse to help me.

Thank you in advance.


Now, I'm in two minds about this. On the one hand, it's not like I agree with taking the money out of the pockets of starving artists, etc. On the other hand, it's not like I agree with the tactics and policies of the businesses that run the bulk of the music industry, particularly mainstream stuff like the track he's mentioned.

Which is a good track, by the way.

Hmmm.

Or you can do what I did, copy the work and send an anonymous money order to the artist. Some artists are pretty hard to track down, unfortunately.
