sure download away the riaa has done stuff to drasticlly tip the scales in thier favor to keep getting repeatative pay. for instance the ability to sample a track created 20 years ago. yeah you gotta pay for stuff like that.
the riaa is defunct and the people know it. now trying to get the goverment to understand it is a different animal.
it's a game of cat and mouse and the riaa is trying to stop the game. they play these games in software piracy as well. they change key check alagorythms froms version to version or they update the methods to make it stronger.
it's done all over. my tax's should not be tied up in courts and stuff due to the riaa trying to maintain it's strong hold on the people who create music. these people like madonna are nothing more then corporate shills. they are told what to say and when to say it in fear of their cash cows being slaughtered for meat.
it's all in the game of life. it's a cat and mouse game. if the riaa wants to protect it's media go right ahead but be it known people won't stand for it and will stop buying it if they get out of hand.
did microsoft stop selling win xp when it was under scrutiny for it's piracy protection ??? no they stepped up and acted on what they new. so they let the updates take care of it, while also being non invasive now.
imagine that a company actually trying to protect it's cash cow the right way by building security and not tieing up peoples money in court. why doesn't the riaa do the same ??? why spend our money we can spend theirs.... |
