I say take every Pirate to court, prosecute them and make them pay the full $10,000 per copy plus court fees and then sentence them to a minimum 1 year in jail. |

I say we take all the retarded anon posters and fine them for stupidity and lock them in jail for a minimum of 2 years.  -- Wildblue Pro Pack / Beam 40 / Laredo NOC / Windows MCE SP2 |

I would go farther; I demand Islamic law be established in the US and their hands be cut off for the first offence and stoning for the second.
I am sure you will applaud the SWAT raids on DJ's that mix music. quote: Make Mix Tapes And The RIAA May Send A SWAT Team To Bust Down Your Door? Apparently a federal SWAT team "assisted" the RIAA in raiding the studio of a DJ in Atlanta.
Now I am sure you will find this a total abuse of police power. quote: NEW YORK The five largest music companies and three of the USA's largest music retailers agreed Monday to pay $67.4 million and distribute $75.7 million in CDs to public and non-profit groups to settle a lawsuit led by New York and Florida over alleged price-fixing in the late 1990s.

| reply to getbentnow Hey Taylor,
I was waiting for this news item to appear in the hopes that you would post. The real reason behind the RIAA's "$1,000 settlement" plan is that they have finally admitted that they are suing incorrect people. Of course, they are blaming the ISPs, not themselves. Still, they are admitting that some of their court cases were against the wrong people.
The danger for the RIAA in this admission is that people might use this as a defense (whether valid or not) and get the cases dismissed. The more people who do this successfully, the more people who will fight and the more precedents that will be set. It's a vicious cycle that the RIAA desperately wants to avoid.
By doing the pre-lawsuit settlements, the RIAA can avoid more lawsuits and rake in settlement money without the messy detail of filing a lawsuit. |

| reply to getbentnow Hey Taylor, excuse my curiosity but when you post, are you being serious or are you some creep with serious issues that hates everything and everyone probably living in your parents basement, abused as a child, and no chance in hell of ever having friends/family of your own? It's just that all of your posts seem utterly ridiculous. I am sorry if you are severely retarded, in which case, sorry again.
About the RIAA's sleazy tactics, they have to keep their source of income live one way or another to pay off and keep the lobbyists on their side. |
