MPAA and RIAA

and i say again in yet another post......EVERYONE is guilty of some sort of infringement. do you think that all your shoutcast radio statios legally have rights to this music they are playing on the internet? do you honestly think that out of the thousands of songs that is in the music library are legit? you my friend are out of your mind because i can not sit here and think of not one person that i know that has NOT listened to a shoutcast radio station at one time and loved the fact that it was free (pending ISP fees of course) and you could listen to your favorite stream at work, at home or where ever you have a pc readily available with internet. it all goes back to one simple thing. pay those scumbag recording artists and pro sports players reasonable salaries to equal what the working man has to go through life earning then perhaps i just might have a little bit of respect for not pirating music. i have said it many times and i will say it again. i pirate anything i can get ahold of. music (currently over 150 gigs of 128 bitrate or better) and software and you name it i know where to get it from trusted sources that do nothing but laugh hysterically at the AA's attempts to stop it. it will never stop, so the sooner you grow up and realize that it is here to stay, the better off people will be without childish rants about stealing and illegal. if you can not take one million dollars and invest it properly to live a comfortable lifestyle, then you are a fucking idiot. these people that started all this infringement crap (namely Metallica) has made so much money it is obscene that they want more. its all the more proof to me that the rich get richer and the working class man gets it right up the wazoo with no kiss. end of rant.

quote:
The result of this chain of events, if it ever were to become widespread, would be dead air, or worse, a return to independently owned radio stations with local DJs deciding what to play. In short, chaos. You wouldn't be hearing the same playlist in Atlanta that you heard in Oklahoma City. A cross-country drive would become a confusing nightmare as a barrage of different DJs, unrecognized songs and unclassifiable genres spews from your speakers. It's a terrifying vision that I have often lost sleep over.
No, I would not call it chaos, I would call it variety!

Who wants to listen to the same damn song from coast to coast? I sure as hell don't!

I do. Because I PAY for the licensing that allows me to. Otherwise, it would be a truly free enterprise, but I have to pay a small "look the other way fee" to the RIAA. I am glad they got talked down a bit because before - they wanted to charge rates that were DOUBLE commercial rates because IP broadcasting offers one thing that terrestrial broadcast does not - listener accounting. Are they going to find *all* "pirate" broadcasts? Doubtful. Even here in the US side of things. But I have been operation for so long only because I play by the rules. And they are expen$ive.

We pay high prices for cd's because the public must pay for the sodas in the break room. Too funny!

DAMN,, that pisses me off the no end. Apparently, independent music is a "chaotic nightmare?" And the way she talks about finding a hit, then paying an artist to produce "15 tracks of filler?" These fucks don't care about music in the least, just fillig up their wallets.
Oh, this is my favourite part:
Consumers have grown fat with their greed, sitting on piles of money that rightfully belong to the recording industry. It's time to redistribute the wealth. The revolution is nigh.

Fuck the RIAA.

You do realise that is a parody site, right?
