So what's the impact? Surely there's a niche in the market for a website that can provide what oink was providing, but "legally" and with extras? Maybe people could download poor samples from bands for a reduced cost (10p a track?) which then goes to the artist. If they like it, they can then upgrade it to a FLAC file for another 10-20p.

A lot of the rare stuff isn't available throguh legal means, due to people holding the copyright being unwilling to release it or whatever the legal situation happens to be.
