@AudiophiliacMan: "If you really love the band you should BUY the album and if you buy the album it should be the best quality"
Kenny Gates @piasrecordings: "Streaming is replacing piracy."
Paul Campbell, CEO, #AmazingRadio: "We pay artists 100 x more than streaming for in-store performances." (via @MosesAvalon) and "What we're really interested in is having people lean forward while they are leaning back."
