And the so called copy protection is the answer to all our problems, yeah right.
When everyone else knows that copy protection doesn't work the big and stupid bosses just think "copy protection? It sound more money for us! Let's do it!"

I was telling my buds today, as a consumer I like to do the right thing. If I hear some music in MP3 form I really like and know of a CD from that band that contains many such songs, I'm usually more than willing to spend the $15 to purchase their CD. Even though a tiny fraction of that goes to the artists, it's better than nothing.
But, on the other hand, the RIAA really pisses me off. Not only is the majority of that $15 funneled right into corporations, but it goes to fund these craptacular ad campaigns and powerful lobbies that want to destroy how I learned of the music in the first place. If only I knew how to send money directly to the artists rather than all of these corporate middlemen.
The RIAA is ticked because of multiple reasons. One, the "single" is dead as we know it. As if it ever stood a chance - who wants to pay $7 to hear one song? Two, prissy cookie-cutter bands can't survive because they can no longer sell the CD that contains one good song and loads of filler. God forbid. And three, the veil has been lifted from the eyes of consumers. Before the Internet, I can't tell you how much money I spent on stupid CDs I thought would be cool, but weren't. Now we'll all informed - and frankly, that scares them.[/quote]
How's that going to make the Judicial system feel about it?
Extra work...
hmmm...
They're just pissed because of the recent settlement on the bloated price of CD's and that millions will be getting a ~$14 refund check...
:rolleyes:
Not at all worried. What bothers me is how do they know how many MP3s a person has? :rolleyes:
do they acually use the "Search for other files from this person" on EVERY kazaa user? heh
If there's a real reason why CD sales are dropping, it's because the price is too high and people don't want to spend that much money they know is crap, unlike before the advent of P2P programs where they spent it because they didn't hear the music first and had to buy the CD to try it.

They must hate me, since I don't have an spyware on my PC. :D hehehehe
I read on RIAA's site that they have tried to put up music online where you can download it for a fee (not free). I'm pritty sure you need a credit card for that and where am I supoused to get a credit card from?
I have to agree whit CurZ that RIAA is trying to frighten people!

Hehehe - Speaking of which - Wasn't the check supposed to be in the mail some time ago. I'm still waiting. :angryv:
Also there's a HUGE oversupply of music on the markets nowadays, so the record companies are not getting "enough" money in comparison with that and they have to get more money from somewhere. Maybe they think they can get more money by suing people and by raising the prices of the records more and more. Haha....
When are they going to learn, that they can never win this war.
A few hints to the record industry: Stop producing and releasing so much crap and lower the prices of the records by at least 50% so that people could actually afford to buy them! You might just notice the business getting better. And give bigger percentage to the artists!

Ohh, you know them. They like to take their sweet time doing what they're being made to do, but the second you do something to them......they want money from you NOW. :rolleyes:
Solution to the RIAA?
