Are there pirated contents that you very like and eventually give money to the creator, and where do you find the creators?

When I started listening to the band Korpiklaani back in 2008 I could only find their newest album for sale. I ended up pirating everything else. I have since purchased all of their albums directly from them.

Excellent choice of music. Though I gotta say I even prefer their older albums when they sounded less refined. Same with Ensiferum, over time they just got a bit too polished for my taste.

I'm not familiar enough with Ensiferum to have an opinion, but I agree with you on Korpiklaani. They're still good, but the old lack of polish adds something to the sound 100%.

I wish I could do that for Band Maid. I really want them to get my money. Not some fucking glorified delivery company.
