There’s some bands I really like but I can’t buy because they are RIAA members.

Hmmm, Intresting…

The record industries always like to play pretend that piracy hurts the artists and that’s the main reason it’s bad.

This flies directly in the face of that, they are throwing the money they should have paid to the creative types straight to their litigious lapdogs.

I wish this had been on the front page of some of the UK papers, would have been interesting to see the response.

They claim that the music piracy rates have decreased enough and studies show that more people buy music instead of pirating it.

If that were true, they wouldn’t be pushing so hard for “three strikes” and ACTA.

@13, by Lucky Man;

they should make own bittorrent and add “donation” into system cuz lot of movies pretty hard to find especially for classic and most movies that are not available on DVD/Bluray nowaday such as:
* Angel (1984)
* Avenging Angel (1985)
* Angel III: The Final Chapter (1988)

Actually, Anchor Bay put out a DVD 3-pack with all three Angel movies. It’s not cheap though.

I got a question for everyone out there, especially the music recording companies.

If the song I buy does not, then, belong to me, to change into whatever format suits my needs, then what the hell am I buying CDs for?

It was mafiaa. org and friends that screwed up kaz aa but injececting crap into the hash value causing crap in the downloaded files. Also they would pm spam people but I disabled messages so I didn’t see em. They didn’t have to destroy the hash value, but if they didn’t, then we wouldn’t have an unbreakable hash like now so they helped us get better networks.

I’ve never cared for the crap put out by the major record labels, but after they started suing 12-year-old girls in 2003, I started sharing it on various P2P networks 24/7, just to stick it to them for being such assholes.

I am proud to have been a frontline soldier in this war against the record industry, and I’ll continue to be their worst enemy until complete victory is achieved.

“The bottom line is, however, that the RIAA made a conscious choice to spend all these millions of dollars on lawsuits and that they believe that the money was well spent.”

Yes they are right. This had an effect and they did changed my behavior with their lawsuits after I got educated. After the law suit I no longer buy anything “entertainment” any more. I even cancelled my cable. But I am still downloading!

Wahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

What a pack of Losers!

““Before we announced the lawsuits, we spent years on various educational campaigns. PSAs. Magazine advertisements. Artists speaking out. Instant messages to millions of Kazaa users. You name it. We made extensive efforts to engage fans and inform them about the law. It made a little difference,” Lamy told TorrentFreak.”

Talk about a liar!
