My brother back in the 80s would record multiple radio stations to his reel to reel and then tediously record to cassette and sell them as unreleased material for a few dollars more than store bought cassettes.
I believe that the problem is substantially more complicated than pirated software. One issue is saturation. Too much of a good thing can kill you. So many musicians fighting for airtime. A second issue is the overplay of what is conceived as entertaining untill we reach the point nausea. Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, 5th Harmony anyone?
