The RIAA is going down and it starts RIGHT HERE !~!

[llbbl]

Corporations are cool until they start infringing upon civil liberties. Rights that every citzen should have. It is certainly not right that they can pressure Congress into killing Internet Radio with CARP. It is certainly not right that they can kill sharing services by taking them to court or threatening to take them to court. I for one am sick of it ! I do not know about the rest of you. RIAA abuses our court system, abuses other small companies, abuses countless individuals way of life and we do nothing about it.

Well you can do something about it. Write everyone you can who you think will make a difference. Join the http://action.eff.org/ site. Donate money to the eff if you can spare it (not living pay check to pay check [ assuming you are responsible with the money you earn ] )

I think the biggest difference that we can make as consumers is to stop buying CD's completely. It is more important that I stand up for issue's that matter to me than buying overpriced pieces of plastic that get can become damaged beyond repair even with judicious care of them. Ever heard of Macrovision? They make it so you can't record movies you check out at blockbuster. I am pretty sure they have a hand in the anti-copy CD's that are on the market.

Don't get me wrong, they are good business men and women, but something about the fact that I am not even supposed to make a backup copy of the music I buy at a store really gets to me. There are lots of reasons that people give, but this is what bothers me the most. I am suppposed to pay twice for the same music if I even accidently scratch my only original copy of the store bought CD. Bogus man !!

Tell your friends, Tell your Famliy
STOP BUYING CD'S
BOYCOTT THE RIAA
