RIAA Subpoenas Ruled Unconstitutional
It's about time this happened. Don't get me wrong I do believe downloading free music is wrong but I also believe that the blatant price fixing that has been going on for the last 3 decades is very, very wrong as well.
I don't like the fact the RIAA are walking around saying people on the net are commiting crimes when the music and film industry have been commiting their own crimes for decades. For most people this is finally pay back and the music/film industry hate it. Well sorry folks but you brought this all on yourself!
If the price fixing hadn't have happened I honestly believe that tens of thousands of downloaders wouldn't be doing it. human beings hate being conned and if there is a chance of some pay back a large number of people would jump at the chance. In my lifetime I have spent hundreds and hundreds on LP's, tapes and CD's and I'm also one of these people who feel totally cheated.
One label alone Polygram is reckoned to of cost consumers an esitmated $480,000,000 in price fixing. If just one company can be estimated at a whopping 480 million dollars it doesn't take much brain power to see just how much money these greedy companies have conned out of us the public.
In my opinion there is no point these companies running around screaming "sob sob, people are getting our stuff for free".
People have 30 years of price fixing to catch up on. The people have spoken and it's tough luck you don't like what you hear!
Payback is a bitch, shut up and just accept the fact what goes around comes around!
