British pop singer Lily Allen has decided to take some time off from music, possibly permanently, because of piracy issues that have been negatively affecting the music business. On her anti-piracy blog, Allen confirmed that she has no plans to tour or make another record after latest album It's Not Me, It's You. She says, "I do however remain a fan of new music, so this is not some selfish crusade. The days of me making money from recording music has been and gone as far as I'm concerned, so I don't (at this point) stand to profit from legislation." The singer has instead taken on a new endeavor, starring in the West End production of Neil Labute's play, Reasons To Be Pretty.
