I don't get it. Do you abstain from buying Dickens because his heirs don't get paid either?
Both Dickens and Gryce are dead. How cold does the body have to be?
The point is, even if you can't support the artist, why support the thief?
sonnymax, do you understand the concepts of copyright and public domain? Real Gone are not thieves. These are works in the public domain in Europe, just like Charles Dickens' works.
As Jim pointed out, the copyright is in effect in the U.S., which is where you live and where Real Gone sells some of its ill-gotten booty. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, happens when the E.U. adopts the extended copyright laws. My guess is nothing will change. Perhaps they'll move to Andorra!
