Re: Hardly surprising - allofmp3 was a pirate outfit quote: Yes they are pirates. Did the artists get thier money? No. who cares about Russian laws. If some country says that child porn is ok does that make it ok for Americans to view it then if the website is base in that country? No of course not. Why anyone would give money and personal info to a RUSSIAN website is beyond me. .ru is synomomous with SCAMS. I have any e-mail I get that has .ru in it to automatically be discarded before it even reaches my inbox. Sometimes people are idiots. Anyone that bought from them deserves to have their bank accounts and credit cards drianed dry.
so is .com. So should people stop doing web business altogether?
I don't care where the business is run if it's legit. Besides allofmp3.com had been operating for years before this hype. Not one complaint about anything fraudulent or that would be all over the news too, you can bet on that.

 YowzaaahOurs Go To Eleven join:2000-12-14 DamnFlat, OH | reply to scrummie02 BUT, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!(then somehow throw child porn into the discussion)! What a TOOL!
"Those filthy Russian, non-American Media Consortium members, how DARE they give consumers fair value for fair pricing? You know - they're on a .ru domain like all those other child porn lovers! Why, I'll bet they must be putting backward masking of Marx and Trotsky speeches into the music our children are being duped into buying. Why else would anyone pay less than the obscene prices a good law abiding American knows Hollywood has legislated we all buy from i-Tunes? BY God we have to put an end to this to failure of everyone in the world to listen to and obey American media company lobbyists at once!"
The simple fact is Allofmp3 has/had the right to do what they do under Russian law and it PISSED the media companies off because they couldn't have absolute control of absolutely every last "legitimate" outlet for purchasing music in the entire damn world- i.e. guarantee that price fixing can continue to exploit the customer via U.S. Gov't protection of a 1920's business model by writing the whole seedy practice into being law. Then trying to make that the law all over the world.
SO THE MEDIA CONGLOMERATES THEN GOT OUR GOVERNMENT TO DEAL WITH THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT AT THE VERY HIGHEST LEVELS, OVER THE WAY MP3S CAN BE SOLD ON A RUSSIAN WEBSITE --and our Gov't wagged it's happy little, donation treat loving, bitch dog tail and came to heel.
