Ditto. Remember those free music sites for college kids like Spiral frog and Ruckus? Without those, I wouldn't be into half of the 1960's bands I love. Or the Goo Goo Dolls! They all went bankrupt in 2008 and I had to scramble to find a DRM cracker to keep my music files!
These days I have to rely on Rate Your Music to find new acts.
