P2P users are criminals. P2P users usually tend to live a violent life of stealing, sexual immorality, and bad behavior. Musician are kind hearted people that plant flowers and rescue pretty pink bunnies... only after screwing their "fans" over time and time again!! I can't count the number of times I bought a CD and only ended up liking one, MAYBE two songs. This is because after a musician gets that "hit" single, they know their fans will pay for any piece of garbage they put out and love it, no matter how bad the album is. So, musicians put out as many albums as they can to feed their greedy pockets. Sometimes you get these musicians that complain about how they only see 25 cents of each album sold. I could really care less how much they see from their album sales. If a musician has the talent then they don't need all the advertising to sell their album; the album will sell on its own!
Anymore music has turned into the business of advertising, not entertainment. There's nothing entertaining about spending 20 bux on a CD that's a piece of retarded crap.
I think the reason people don't care about taking the music is because the musicians don't seem to care that they steal from us. People will buy albums from good musicians, as long as the musician isn't a greedy b*st*rd.
I myself am a musicican, maybe not a pop billboard 100 star or whatever, but I do create music and I want people to be able to hear it. I would never be in it for the money because it is something I like to do.

Dela, you said p2p cannot be banned. I think that is true to a point. But what I was saying that here in America and perhaps other countries it will be illeagel to download p2p apps and also licensed content. The internet has baffled the laws because everything is foriegn. Someday they will make new laws to govern sharing. I think there will always be people doint it, but I also think there will always be people getting busted doing it. Anyways, I think we should all just try to enjoy it while its still here.
I dont think its a huge problem now because I am addicted to purchasing albums in the store and getting the full package and satisfaction of the purchase because when I was a teen we didnt have p2p and that is how I was raised. But just think, now you will have lots of kids growing up and using p2p to get all the music because they can spend the money elsewhere and also they didnt grow up buying packaged retail albums and wont be addicted to that satisfaction of buying retail as we do. When these kids have grown up and p2p will go from the back row to the front row and will become just a way of life, that is when the movie, software, music, etc industries will start hurting. I dont know if you know this, but America is fueled by industries and there is no way they will put up with it once it reaches that level.
As for those in other countries, I dont think many of you will ever have to worry about this. Maybe Japan, UK, and a few others, although I'm not sure.
Game on!

Ok there should be some sort of control on the net BUT it should not be controlled by governments and organisations of todays world! Most of them just dont understand how it works but pretend they do and cause chaos, wont it be illegal to use firewalls in some states in america soon?? That is a big example of what we will get if we allow todays law control the net!

Well it will have to be because they are already starting and if they dont, who will? There is fantasy and reality, what we want to happen, and what is more likely to happen.

Hi Bill, I listened to your songs, pretty cool man. How did you get hooked up with Stu Hamm? I'm a big Satriani fan and I'd love to play with Stu, that would be awesome. Does he play with you live or was it just for the album?
Thanks,
Chuck

Hi Chuck,
Thanks I'm glad you liked the songs. Stu is a great guy and an awesome player. He and I have a mutual friend that asked Stu if he would be interested in playing on the cd. He listened to some of the demos and agreed to do it.
What I really liked was all of the tracks were recorded with no cutting and pasting. They were recorded pretty much as you hear them.
By the way the new cd "Slather" will be available within the next 2 weeks. Also if you are attending NAMM in January I will be playing at the Peavey Booth on Friday.
Thanks again and take care
Bill

Bill,
I noticed that when I go to www.joesatriani.com it takes me to your website, I emailed you to ask you what the purpose of taking Joe's name and directing it to your site. You haven't replaied to my second email so your probably just ignoring me now. I think your answer of protecting Satriani from people that want to take his domain for exploiting is BS. If you wanted to protect his domain, then why do you make it point to your website? Don't you think your reaking the benefits of someone else? Somehow I don't feel that you have offered Joe's team that domain name back.
Even as a fan, I don't see why it is at your best interest to "Protect" Joe from exploiters, if it did happen to him, which seems like this is the case, then I'm sure he's well prepared to take care of it for himself.
I don't mean to bash on you or anything but I'm always honest when it comes to relationships with other musicians and I just don't feel your doing Joe any justice.
Here's the reaply from Bill after I asked about Joe's link pointing to his website:
Hi Chuck,
Thanks for signing the guestbook and posting on AfterDawn, which I replied too. Anyways I wanted to answer your question regarding JoeSatriani.com
First I want to say I am a fan of Joe?s and I respect him very much (who doesn?t). The main reason why I bought the domain was to protect him from someone squatting on it and extorting money from him. I don?t want anything from him at all. I have spoken with him and met him on several occasions and told him that it is his if he wants it. I am just waiting for him to give me the info on who to transfer it to.
There are people out there that buy domains for the sole purpose of extorting money, I am not one of them. Basically this is my way of giving Joe back something for all the years of great music. He has been trying to get this name for 10 years now so it?s about time he gets it.
Thanks again
Bill
My conclusion is that I still don't understand why he needs to have it go to his website instead of just making it a dead link or something, or better yet, make it point to Joe's real website. Something fishy here, don't you think guys?
Chuck

I explained myself once and I don't need to explain it again. I am not going to apologize for owning Joe's name. Why should I? If Microsoft.com became available and you had the opportunity to buy it can you honestly tell me you wouldn't?
That is it that is all I am going to say on the subject. If you don't like it don't type it.
By the way this is between Joe and I and it is no one else's business!

Well Bill, unfortunately after that answer, I really don't want anything to do with you. You told me in your email that you did it to protect Joe which I knew was a flat out lie, and now your changing your answer saying that if Microsoft was available why wouldn't you buy it, of course for your sole purpose of making money. This is exactly what your doing to Joe on a smaller scale. I'm a big supporter of Joe and it's too bad that you would do this to him after saying that you respect him.
