Re: Straight From The Twitter Feed...

That's my point too..
The numbers the MPAA/RIAA CLAIM to have lost due to P2P is just beyond reasonable, even if there were true losses.
If I was the judge, I would make them explain, in detail, how they arrived at their figures, and if they could support the numbers claimed. If they could not backup up their claims with real world numbers, I would throw the entire case out due to it being frivolous in origin...

There is no way on this earth that they could substantiate the numbers that the claim to have lost...

They're just picking some pie-in-the-sky number as a % of lost business and throwing it out there. There's no credible reasoning behind what they assert their damages to be.

They'd have better luck getting Congress to pass the "Business Models With Disabilites Act".

Don't give them any ideas. It looks like our elected officials will pass anything right now except a free all-you-can-eat buffet.

The criminal organizations of RIAA/MPAA/IFPI et al NEVER EVER provided ANY explanation of their losses - they usually cite "studies" as resources but when you actually bother to dig into those numbers they ALL TRUN OUT TO BE COMPLETE BS, PULLED FROM THIN AIR with NO EVIDENCE BEHIND ANY OF IT.

It's a criminal organization, at least RIAA and MPAA are clearly and they should be TRIED under the RICO statue.

[BQUOTE=[user=bicker]]Waaaa waaaa waaaa. You just want what you want and don't care to factor in what is right or true. Your perspectives are un-American, and deserve far more ridicule than I'm prepared to pile on them.
