Artists blast record companies over lawsuits

Artists blast record companies over lawsuits against downloaders:

“File sharing is a reality, and it would seem that the labels would do well to learn how to incorporate it into their business models somehow,” said genre-busting DJ Moby in a post on his Web site. “Record companies suing 12-year-old girls for file sharing is kind of like horse-and-buggy operators suing Henry Ford.”

A number of artists chime in here with thoughtful commentary. Moby, by the way, is not really a “DJ”… he’s a multi-instrumentalist and a producer.
