This is ridiculous. If the RIAA would pull its own head out of its ass it would realize that it's pitting an outdated bureaucracy that even the artists hate, against the creativity and poverty of a bunch of users who are collectively smarter and more determined, and will figure out a way to circumvent whatever limitations are placed on them. If they were smart the RIAA would figure out a way to cut its losses and start playing the game. $20 for a CD is rifuckingdiculous when the artist makes like <$1 on the sale, and the whole thing costs about $1.50 to produce. They're greedy bastards and it will bury them.
