Extreme expense that goes into making music? What extreme expense? I am an artist and I have yet to encounter this. I recorded an album for about $100 and then posted it for download on the internet. These people want to insert themselves into music and sap money away from artists and listeners, they contribute nothing.
I read this in a few hours, and I thought it was good. I was hoping for something new, and didn't really get it, but it was a good read.
I think the joy of books like the Silmarillion, Lost Tales, ect is in finding stuff out. After reading LOTR for the first time in 5th grade I had a lot of questions about plot events and backstory and I have found it very satisfying to read all the other books and figure everything about. So if you don't really care about what happened in Tolkein's universe, this book probably isn't for you, but if you don't care, how can you go around calling yourself a geek?

Why is this modded funny, it should be informative or insightful.
Ok, I read it at first as UK government reconsiders ban on astroids. I've heard of some ridiculous bans, but that would be pretty out there...
