Underground sampling
Q: I am so on the underground - they ain't gonna hear this and catch me...
A: Well, first off you never know who is lurking underground. And second, if
your goal is to get recognized, you gotta surface at some point. Don't risk
the lawsuit. Copyright infringement is a federal offense and punishable as
such. Protect yourself!
