As the record industry scrambles to figure out how to stop the unstoppable tide of online music sharing, high-profile artists continue to side with those who really enjoy copying their music, thank you very much. Most recently, Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails spoke out against the anti-sharing movement (actually telling his fans to steal music), then Radiohead offered its album up for fans to download at whatever price they saw fit. Now Curtis Jackson, who you may know as 50 Cent, has spoken his mind as well.During an interview in Oslo, Norway, Mr. Cent said that "[file sharing] doesn't really hurt the artists," and contended that it only hurts the studios. Of course, not all musicians have their own record label, clothing line, or Vitamin Water flavor but we digress.Still, for all those record execs fighting what they perceive to be the "good fight," Jackson's comments must sting (even through those thick suits).
