Mob4Hire Taking Off

But one sector that is changing and doesn’t get a [...]
Piracy Might be Good for Business
We’ll all too aware that record companies have been blaming their industry woes on people who download music without paying for it. They’re also very fond of making the flawed assumption that every track downloaded for free would have been paid for if the free option didn’t exist – despite no evidence to support the [...]
