I hate that anyone thinks it is FAIR or not for recordings. It is a financial decision. Period. If someone finances it, then it will get a recording. I don't see how that is so hard to understand!!
Is it FAIR that my neighbor has a Mercedes and I drive a KIA? Who cares...he spent his money on his car...because it was his choice. He's paying for it so it is "fair".
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
