i say we kill all the riaa executives. Or just one, that should be enough, a simple assination and then they'ed back off.

stop buying music. If everybody who snags tunes online doesn't buy any music, the industry would lose even more money and just maybe they will stop suing regular folks. Remember if your getting sued for fileswapping bring all of the CDs you've bought and match those against what they are charging you with. If you retain a copy of the music on a copyrighted disc they can't sue you for infringment unless some sort of transaction took place where goods where exchanged or there was finacial gain without permission from the copyrighted party. This they have to prove. I have a friend who is a lawyer so info is just a phone call away.

call him up and ask if I legally have to pay a prostitute, because she said it was theft when I was like fuck that, your not getting any of my money beyotch!

how can they sue only a couple of people for this? they aren't goin to get anywhere suing 1 person at a time. there are millions of people downloading music... its almost unstoppable unless they just sue the creators of kazaa, bearshare etc.

which they cant... dont ask me why but read an article explaining Kazaa itself cant be stopped. and the RIAA is suing the more prolific 'sharers', i.e computer games, extremely expensive software (3ds max) or blockbuster movies

that is pathetic. and fuck all the artists who are complaining about losing money. they're already fucking rich. it's not hurting them

the artists don't see that much from each album...the record companys get the majority of the money. a cd only costs 12 cents to make after studio costs and that shit

SLTskier: there are so many girls in freeskiing now have you noticed that

stowek2: yep..theres a few skilled ones...a good number who love it and want to progress, then a bunch of morons that are trying to impress the boys by wearing as little clothing as possible and as much make-up as possible on the hill

SLTskier: yeah however im one that trys to progress and impress the boys :-)

they cant stop kaaza cuz theres no central database its people connecting from software on their computer to software on someone else's. And what they are trying to get across with suing one person at a time is called a 'scare tactic' so other people fear they will be prosecuted aswell. the reason they targeted a 12 year old girl is for this very reason everyone will hear about it and talk about also it sends the message across that anyone is guilty not just older people.

if i go see a band/person live, i don't feel so bad about downloading their music

Abba Zabba, you my only friend
 
i never feel bad about downloading music. who cares, mainstream music nowadays fucking sucks dick anyways. so the only place you can get good stuff is usually on a file sharing network. so i say fuck the RIAA and all the artists who make shitty music. they all can like my sweaty nutsack and rot in the bottom of a river.

i think i think i like it like thata

that add is horrible. how can the RIAA possibly link downloading music to comunism. its not like if the whole country downloads a couple songs Stalin is gonna come back from the dead in full fighting force.

the copy right law states that you cant download/steal/pirate sometihng, adn hten sell it for profit. its the same as pay per viw. you can record it, and whatever, but if you charge your friends admission to you house to watch it. thats when the law is broken.

I don't feel bad about downloading music, the music I download is typically the bands encouraging people to download their work to get known, that or bands who have enough money to buy themselves 9 cars and 5 houses. I will go out and buy the cd's to underground, local, and my favorite bands that I know need, and fully deserve every cent of their money. Although, I have kind of withdrawn from Kazaa, which, I know, is the RIAA's exact intentions but I have about 32 thousand files so it's a bit sketchy... lately I've been going to www.mp3.com and the mp3's go right into my music match jukebox.

Ok I have a few questions, first of all, is the RIAA doing all this shit on IMesh as well? or am I safe if Im using Imesh as opposed to kazaa? Also, if you arent sharing your songs but only downloading other peoples songs, can you get caught?

-MiKeE LiFsHiTz-
 
yeah that sucks if anyone ever called me about something like that i would freak out!!

Hey farva, whats that resturaunt you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mossarlla sticks?....... Shenanigans, your talkin about shenanigans right?

its only if u live in the states in u live in canada u cant get sued unless they can prove you are useing the mp3's to sell or fro profit the coping of music is allowed

i read that in the metro this morning

 
I hate to say this, but if there aren't any CDs being bought that support a band that isn't that well heard of, but there is a ton of downloads. let's say the band is amazing, because no CDs are being bought they can't go on tour because they aren't making money. you wouldn't like it if you had a band that had a chance of making it, then couldn't because people were just downloading your music and not buying your CD. I used to download music, and I still do, I just get it from www.mp3.com. it's 'legal' and it supports the band. I'm not trying to incite an argument, just stating a point.

though I do not condone the actions taken by the RIAA in getting 2Gs from that 12 year old girl. at least they didn't come after some poor college students.

How can the RIAA sue for that stuff when its music? The RIAA is only music isnt it? Please explain.

this is bullshit. I don't buy into the lie that the RIAA is handing out. I don't see the artists as victims.

The problem with the RIAA, artists, and anyone protesting against mp3s is that..

They fail to see the bigger picture here

MP3's allow a great deal of exposure to bands, and it INCREASES the interest in music.

Bottom line. It's free marketing for them.

Think Bigger Picture

Mp3's expose people to all sorts of bands. The popular and the unpopular. Let's say a person goes online and downloads a song by the Beastie Boys. He hadn't heard their music before, and now he likes it. That same person is now likely to buy the band's merchandise (such as clothing) and go to a concert (how much do tickets cost?).

While yes, a small percentage of people will not buy the band's cd, would they have bought it anyway?

And even a percentage of the people who have mp3s are likely to go purchase the actual cd because the cd comes with extras, 'there's nothing like the original', the quality is better, and it supports their band.

In reality, the bands are arguing over pennies. If they could see the bigger picture than they would welcome the mp3 movement. There is not alot of money to be made on cd sales - only in large large quantities of it.

They could afford to give cd's away for that matter and they would still be fine.

Because now they have an increase in fans; and an increase in fans means in increase in concert ticket sales, merchandise sales, and etc. etc.

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Ski.

 
Don't believe these assholes. (people trying to stop mp3s)

They are the same organizations that tried stopping recordable VHS, and blank cassette tapes.

Essentially: On a small scale mp3s may decrease a percentage of cd sales.

But mp3s bring more exposure. And in the bigger picture it brings the bands more money.

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Ski.

 
god dammit, i just tried to download a few songs from the new dave matthews cd and all the songs have been replaced by 'where are you going' ahhhh! i just wanted to see wheter or not i wanted to buy it, oh well I GUESS I WONT!
