Last I checked, pirates can hear what songs they like on the radio, and the TV, via MTV and VH1, then download them for free
I can't remember the last time I heard music I wanted to hear on the radio, or saw an excellent video on TV. Through p2p sharing, Joe Blow in Saskatchewan can be exposed to what music really is, not what some perky MTV veejay thinks you should like or what some money-hungry label exec thinks he can make a buck at. I hope that the distribution potential the internet can provide for more obscure (and, in my opinion, often superior) artists will gradually push the Britney's out of the music scene.
I see that your interests include both music and science. Do you find that those interests complement eachother, or are they often conflicting? Who are your musical role models?

Linguistic evolution is double plus good.
