Wake up, boys

The CrossBlogsters must be slacking today. Wired News has an interview with Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy and there’s no mention on the blog.

Tweedy: A piece of art is not a loaf of bread. When someone steals a loaf of bread from the store, that’s it. The loaf of bread is gone. When someone downloads a piece of music, it’s just data until the listener puts that music back together with their own ears, their mind, their subjective experience. How they perceive your work changes your work. Treating your audience like thieves is absurd.
