Must-read blog on music and piracy

So after checking out Bandcamp (which you should do, too if you've never heard of it), I stumbled across the Bible of music piracy; basically exactly what I have been saying this whole time (but much better written). It's  a blog called New Music Strategies by Andrew Dubber (et al.).
In one particular article, "Should I be worried about piracy," he starts by separating piracy from unauthorized copying and then points out how the latter is not a problem worth worrying about.
In another, he talks about how important it is for people to be able to listen to music before purchasing.
This will sound cheesy, but the information age really is revolutionizing the music industry (for the better, IMO). Comments?
