Silly RIAA.

Lets sue the people who buy your product.

I pesonally use Kazaa Lite to download rare tracks that are not easily obtained from the so called music stores. So you want to make me a criminal because I my goal is to have every johnny cash recording ever made???? Why don't you use your vast resources and put an end to (insert world/us problem here). Crack mothers are spitting out babies like an ATM machine, but you want to preach to me what is right and wrong? NO You want to protect your own greedy selfs. You cheated the artists into giving their first male born child in return for a record contract, and then tell them how/what to sing. and now we have found a way to cheat you....Isn't their honor among theifs?????

Most artists barely see a dime from record sells. URL=http://more.abcnews.go.com/sections/business/entertainment/forbes_concertcash_030711.html](see abc news)[/url] The real money is in concert tours and merchandising...why is ozzy on tv???? Why is metallica coming out with a video game? because the riaa gets the money from cd sales and they have to find something to support their habits.

When a product in the marketplace isn't selling well, what do other companies do? Most try to make their product better.

Remember the day when you bought an album that had impressive cover art, full lyrics and usually fun stuff that made you want to buy the album (remember pink floyds wish you were here brown plain wrapper. or the fact that black sabbath's debut album was realesed on friday feb. 13th.) Instead your lazy greedy bastards barely put the track listings on the cd. And heaven forbid your a kid who doesn't live in a major metropolis and your only source of music is the local censored wal-mart racks.

If the product is bland and isn't worth the value you charge for it Why should I buy it. I listen to it on the radio for free all day long, but I can't listen to it on my computer all day long, unless I listen to something like spinner.com?

Granted it's hard to download a new ford truck from the internet, but the principal is the same. If Ford or any manufacturer didn't come out with something new, wouldn't you just use your old one until it wore out? (that is if they didn't design them to break down. They aren't in the automobile business ford (and every car maker) is in the parts business.)

Give me something that is worth the $20 you want and I'll start buying again.

Give me something that isn't total crap and sounds like everything else out there and I'll be back.

Hell charge me an extra quarter more for my blank media so I can record my own songs my own way.

Until then you can shove my IP Address, well there might be kids listening.

I'm just glad the RIAA isn't involved in the movie business. I'd hate to be sued cause I watched it on a friends hbo subscription instead of paying $12 to watch it at the theater.
