Neither does the band. I'm pissed at the RIAA, but I'm not going to screw my favorite bands over just to spite the RIAA.
What exactly is the RIAA? I never thought of them as a for-profit group. I thought they were just an association that works to make things as good as possible for the labels. I didn't think the labels actually gave them any significant money.
