anywho, this really made me laugh my ass off...






this whole thing just keeps becoming more and more ridiculous.... I wish I could just make the RIAA understand that the more they do this crap, the more they disenchant the average joe and the less records they sell...

I wont EVER buy another metallica album, even if they stop recording crap and make a decent album at this point..
Don't get me wrong I hate the RIAA as much as the next guy, but please let's refrain from spreading misinformation. The article is here:

Now then, the RIAA has nothing to do with this program, it is actually the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) that is involved here. The MPAA is the RIAA for movies. With that out of the way, I agree that this program is extremely counterproductive. I mean, once they tell kids "Don't use Kazaa to download movies for free cause it's wrong," the first thing thats gonna pop in their brains is "I can get movies for free? Sweet!" And if they already knew it, this is just gonna make 'em want to stick it to the man even more. How about using our schools to prepare kids for college, teaching them geography, chemistry, biology, mathematics, physics, etc...., oh wait I guess they are preparing them for college, since these kids are gonna turn into the nefarious pirates that we all know college kids are.
