| Napster - 6 million songs - MP3 format - 99 cents each
All I have ever asked for is digital music priced fair without any DRM and Napster delivered. I spent $50 on new tracks with them just to show my support and I uninstalled my p2p client. I have gone legit...
Thanks Napster 
Thanks RIAA for allowing it |

| Here's what's confusing.
Someone can't give me freely an MP3 encoded at 128, because that's considered "copyright infringement".
However, if there happened to be a YouTube or other media stream of said song, and I record it, that's okay.
I mean if I record straight off of SIRIUS how is that any different than sharing the MP3? Because I paid for SIRIUS? I didn't pay for the right to record, I paid for the right to listen. Therein is the problem.
I don't share MP3s. I don't use P2P to get them, I don't even deal with people who talk about them. I just find a high quality FLV stream and convert it, or record the audio directly into a new file. Does that make me a criminal? Does that mean IMEEM and YouTube and all of these other sites are breaking the law? |
