more free music?
nick: Some of the review copies of "Scarlet's Walk" were shipped inside glued-shut CD players to keep the album from being bootlegged. Why?
amos: Well, the album is out today and it wasn't bootlegged, right?
nick: Why is that a big concern for you? Loss of royalties? Not being able to control the release of the music?
amos: We know people have this consciousness that they think it's OK to take music for free. And I say if you really can't afford it, then you should be able to have it for free. But if all you're doing is taking and taking and not giving anything back, then all you are is a taker. I mean, you're not writing this story for free, are you, Nick?
