Just found out that the remix of "Magic Carpet Ride" from the "Go" soundtrack is not in fact by Crystal Method, as my MP3 player informs me, but somebody called Philip Steir. I can only assume that it was mislabelled when I downloaded it. Why do people do that? Is it ignorance or malice? I have this vague notion that it may be in order to trick people into buying an album by an artist because they've heard something they liked that's apparently by that artist...

I try not to download music.

Not because it's wrong; it's because 90% of the time, some retarded chimp has arsed up the encoding / added "effects" / labelled everything wrong / decided to mix partially corrupt OGG and very poor quality MP3 on one albumn FOR NO REASON KNOWN TO MAN.

So if I like something, I'll see if I can grab the album. I'll put it in it's own little quarantined folder, have a listen, and then purge it so thorougly that Uncle Joe Stalin would be proud.

Somehow I didn't think you'd be objecting on moral grounds.
