so, a week or two ago I decided I wanted to hear the new Fleetwood Mac tunes. I fire up the old Kazaa Lite and type in the name of the album and soon I have all 18 songs downloading. Later, I go to listen to them and all but 5 or 6 of them are loops. If you havent heard any of these yet, what it is is a 10-15 second clip of a song, looped to play over and over for whatever amount of time the song is supposed to last. In this case, it was a loop of the first single, called Peacekeeper. I have tried dling some of these songs 3 and 4 times and still keep getting this fucking loop.

anyone else having this trouble? is this something the music companies came up with to interfere with song/file sharing?

and if so, who are the assholes who keep this shit on their comps? or do you think the music companies have comps set up specifically to spew this shit into the p2p community?

isnt it about time that the RIAA just admits that it has lost? Had they been on the ball (say about 5 years ago), they could have put all this p2p technology to work for them. Instead they ignored it and now WE have it. They'll never get it back.

rant over.
