Well, let's see. If you buy a CD-R, you pay for music, even if you use the CD-R to store family photos. In essence, unless you DO put music on the CD-R, the RIAA is stealing your money. If I'm paying a surcharge to the RIAA so I can get music, I'm not gonna get into a moral hangup when I actually GET the music.
