Dashboard Confessional frontman Chris Carrabba says he “wouldn't have a career” without the illegal music download sites of the noughties.
The emo band formed in 1999 and scored a number two in the US with their 2003 LP 'A Mark, a Mission, a Brand, a Scar', and although singer Chris, 49, acknowledges that music piracy sites such as Napster and LimeWire were bad for business for many, but he also believes that his music wouldn't have been heard by the masses if they didn't exist.
