It's out of respect for the band members. I don't really care if
Virgin don't get their share, and if the band members had said they
ddn't mind some "unofficial" things appearing (like some other artists
have done), then I would buy.
But I'm sure many people on this list feel that the least we can do is
show respect to the members of Madness by not buying these items.
Considering all the great official releases they have given us,
all those memories, then it's really a small thing to ask in return.
