  • RIAA... (nuff said)



    It seems our friends over at the RIAA just cannot get enough. The latest BS to emerge from there are cease-and-desist letters to Youtube users who have dared to put up videos of things such as themselves dancing to music they haven’t licensed.

        This is a problem when you want credibility and keep arguing that copying is stealing just like you would from a store. It's just not solid, it can be argued to be stealing, but not like that.

        So now you want to be credible, and use scare tactics and these truly incredible cases keeps on coming all the time, well.. you can forget about having any weight on words or threats at this point, most think RIAA adn others are just fat clowns trying to leech income from anyone they can put their finger on.

        If they want piracy to be taken as a serious matter, they should first off boot the managment of these organizations. THey are doing a piss poor job.

              Recently I read that Hilary Rosen (former head of RIAA) said what RIAA was doing was wrong.

              Funniest thing I heard in a long time.

                you never can. Copying is not stealing. I'm not saying it's morally right but stealing it aint.

                  Also they are assuming that every single person who download songs will actually pay if they couldn't download.

                  This is utterly flawed.

                      These threads are really boring, because no one here seems to be kooky enough to defend the RIAA. 'tis a shame.

                          To do that, people would have to stop downloading music illegally.

                          ACK!

                            Not to mention that we already pay extra on CD's, DVD's en HD's.

                            Guilty before actually having done anything and when you do, you can be fined!

                              Sava certainly is kooky enough, but we know he isn't serious.
