Lily Allen says she doesn't mind fans buying her burned CDs
Singer 'all for burning CDs as long as people pay for them'

Lily Allen has waded into the illegal download debate again, claiming that she doesn't oppose people purchasing burned copies of her CDs as long as they pay for them.

The singer, who previously launched a campaign against illegal file-sharing and said that music piracy and downloading is damaging the industry, said she wants fans to appreciate the value of her work.

"If someone comes up with a burnt copy of my CD and offers it to you for £4 I haven't a problem with that as long as the person buying it places some kind of value on my music," she told Key 103.

The singer's old anti-file-sharing blog was supported by a host of artists including Mark Ronson, Gary Barlow of Take That and Bat For Lashes Natasha Khan before she pulled the plug on it in September because the "abuse" she was getting for doing it was "getting too much".

The star initially criticised the Featured Artists Coalition, which is supported by Radiohead's Ed O'Brien, over their stance on illegal downloads. But they later sent her a letter outlining that they were in fact opposed to the concept in principle.

She would rather her music be worth something to someone. She'd like her fans to pay someone for the music, even if its a bootlegger, rather than only want her music for free. She wouldn't want someone to download her music because it's not good enough to pay money for.
[info]bossmew 22nd-Nov-2009 03:36 am (UTC)
Because some dodgy bloke selling it in a pub is better than getting it off the web for free?

God she's a silly twat!

[info]pottergirl26 22nd-Nov-2009 06:33 am (UTC)
If anything it's worse because somebody with no legal entitlement is profiting off her cd.
[info]kidlucid 22nd-Nov-2009 12:16 pm (UTC)
She just wants the value of her music appreciated with money.
[info]myloveyourlust 22nd-Nov-2009 03:37 am (UTC)

I'd burn cd's if I took the time to buy blank cd's.

[info]love_allure 22nd-Nov-2009 03:43 am (UTC)

[info]nene718 22nd-Nov-2009 04:13 am (UTC)
My friend does by the assload.
[info]supadupalove 22nd-Nov-2009 04:17 am (UTC)
I do, because my iPod FM adapter doesn't work in my stupid car (it works in my mom's truck, but not my car. idgi).
[info]kristinchaos 22nd-Nov-2009 04:32 am (UTC)
Record labels and people living in the stone age.
[info]requinnn 22nd-Nov-2009 05:03 am (UTC)
I do because I hate worrying about finding a blank station for my stupid iPod adapter. Plus sometimes even when I do get a good station it'll still sound all staticky over my music. Fuck that.
[info]jordanchase 22nd-Nov-2009 05:33 am (UTC)

[info]tictaac 22nd-Nov-2009 03:39 am (UTC)
Both of her CDs are great. I also, usually, like her personality on interviews. She seems funny and stuff. And that documentary she had like 3 years ago was really entertaining, but....

GUURRRRL, SHUT THE FUCK UP.

You're digging a deeper hole every time you open your mouth about this shit.
