I looked through Daze's work and nothing was recognisable. Now, I realise that I can't say for absolute sure that it's not in there, but I've played both GTA3 and GTA:VC extensively (read: too many hours to think about) and I believe I'd've recognised something. So I reckon one of two things:
1. He's lying and hoping to settle out of court to make some bucks.
or 2. It's so hidden that only someone who painstakingly explored
every single area would have discovered it.
Given the extremely low odds of either "Daze" himself discovering it, or said player in case 2 also being a such a fan of Daze's art that they recognise it on site and are able to get in contact with him and tell him about it and then show the requisite proof, I'm going with scenario 1.
Bravo, I agree, to a point. Myself, the main reason I use Kazaa or something like it is because the majority of albums suck, imo. If I here a song I like, I'm not going to by an album of crap for that one good song. I would, however, purchase or pay to download, a single.mp3 version.
I believe the real reason RIAA is doing this is because they realise that, "if the technology takes off" (re: IT ALREADY HAS STUPID RIAA,) they won't be able to conscience making consumers purchase a $15-20 cd. Instead, it'll be cents per song.
Personally, I'm gravitating toward the independent artists, some of whome produce much better music than the studio monkeys create, and charge a fee to download or even allow free downloading because their reward is appreciation for their music, and hopes that people who enjoy them will attend any events if they are close enough.
I'm an ambient fan, and a lot of the music I listen to is available for free from the get go, just for the recognition factor. And if said artist would have a show, concert or what-have-you close enough to my location, I'd most certainly attend./ramble
I use Kazaa almost everyday, and can find most anything I want. Of course, the odd thing is the stuff I look for is stuff I can't find anywhere else, and believe me, I've looked.

Nice :D
asdl;fjasdljfalk;s! You just killed me. Had I not already swallowed my beer, I'd've been rather peeved.

I know, let's dump a bunch of plastic covered in moth-semen in the woods. THAT'LL get rid of them. Wait, what do you mean, pollution?
