1 edit | [sarcastic] Don't you get it yet? You don't "pay" for music content anymore! You pay for the chance to listen to the music content. Whether you like the variety or not, doesn't matter. CD's yup, you guessed it. You simply pay for the chance to listen to it. The CD is yours. You can do what ever you want to with it, but what's on the disc still belongs to the record companies. If you want to listen to the contents of that disk in the house and in the car at the same time, you need to buy two CD's.
You need to be glad the RIAA doesn't have a neuralizer or else they would erase that "tune in your head" so you don't have an illegal copy of it! [/sarcastic] -- ] :: my trivial ramblings :: [ | |

Well I don't and won't buy into the idea that I have to have a CD for every single CD Player that I own, That's just plain stupid(Ridiculous even?), If that were true I'd have to buy 3 CDs of everything and when I get a AM/FM/CD Player for My Car I'd need 4, Can You say instant Money Maker for the RIAA???? If I have 1 CD of something, I'll play It where ever I want, What are They going to do next say that I can't object? I thought the US Constitution/Amendments Guranteed Freedom of Choice? The RIAA Sucks. I'm all for buying CDs off the shelf, But not 3 or 4 of the same title at a time. | |

| Re: Content is paid for Wait until they start charging a broadcast fee if the sound emminates from your car or if you have passengers. If they could have a device to find out how many ears were listening and bill your CC for each one it found I'm sure the RIAA would do it. | |

You're forgetting that RIAA has already outlawed fair use via the DMCA. | |

| This situation is totally insane! What is the RIAA going to do next ? Are they going to start printing a time schedule on the back of copyrighted music CDs telling you the exact time and day when you can legally listen to the music CDs you just purchased ?
At this point the RIAA and the recording industry should simply store away and lock up all of their legally protected music recordings in a large vault where they are safe from supposedly "unauthorized recording". Unfortunately these ultra- protected recordings will become quickly forgotten and worthless to the next generation of listeners.
In the meantime people in the U.S and the world will move on to better, less expensive, and more easily accessible types of entertainment. The world will be enjoying other forms of media, music, video, computer games, and other media not associated with the RIAA and its music monopoly. The U.S. music industry's forty plus years of monopoly control over music in the United States is over. The problem is that the RIAA still doesn't comprehend that its biggest threat is not America's legal paying customers of XM Radio but instead the real danger to their profits is what they are facing with the emergence of a diverse and growing international digital media market. | |
