You are an idiot and a thief. Ok so let's make bank robbing legal because you are just going to encourage more bank robbing by making it illegal and stopping it. Um...ok. Same thing with murder, rape etc.... I mean if rape is illegal then only rapists can rape and that's just so unfair. |

1 edit | Okay Captain Hyperbole...
Buying some songs from a Russian website that is cheaper than overpriced American crap is equated to robbing banks and murder how?
Face it you're grabbing for straws....
Most people that are going to steal music aren't going to purchase it anyway, regardless of whether it's 99 cents or 2 cents a track. So most people buying from this site are thinking it's legal, at least that's what I gather from folks that have used it.
For the most part this is a case of supply and demand economics and price wars. A foreigner is offering a cheaper price for a better product (much like the Japanese cars/electronics of decades past), so naturally people flock to it. To say people that use the site are all of dubious character invalidates any statements you have against this business model. Besides, if you need to compete you need to come up with a competitive business model, not try to shut down the competition through government regulation, in my opinion at least.

Not only did you not provide a valid comment, you single handedly cut yourself down in the process. Please, for the sake of the internet call the ISP you use and cancel. |

Tell that to rape victims or the family of a murder victim. Clearly, sir, you are dillusional and haven't got a clue. As well as ignorant.
