| Re: so I totally agree with you. It is only a matter of time before the recording industry becomes so bloated and heavy, that it will have to fall. As more bands and artists realize that there are other channels out there besides what the RIAA sells them, then the industry will be back to the way it belongs...with only the artists and the fans.
If more sites like the one in my sig start taking hold, then the RIAA has no chance.

| Re: so what you guys are missing is that out of that many cases, SOMEONE will have tried to fight back. At least some of the people sued had to be lawyers... my guess is that if it looks like they are going to take it far engough, they basically make them sign a non-disclosure agreement and drop the case.
Remember, this isn't about making back money from piracy. it'a about terrorism. It's about scaring the public into purchasing their product. | |

USA | Re: so Yeah, I know one of my nebighors is a lawyer and settled for a lot less money. He did something where the music guys from CA would have to come here (Chicago) for the case.
Good for her fighting back | |

1 edit | Reminds me of a stat I read a while back. In the US 1 out every 400 ppl is a lawyer. In Europe its 1 lawyer per 1,000 people. So they could have sued 32.5 lawyers by now. | |

| Re: so said by madcowusa  :In the US 1 out every 400 ppl is a lawyer. That's probably "1 out of every 400 people think they are a lawyer." But then again, 1 out of 12 stats are made up.

| How are all these aspiring musicians marketing their product? The Internet has been a huge boon, because it allows cheap, direct distribution of music to -- and communication with -- fans. Practically every artist now has an official Web site, most offering free MP3 downloads, and they maintain e-mail lists to promote upcoming shows and releases. Beautiful article, SRFireside . The major record labels need to get their heads out of their arse. Apparently, they don't get what they are really and truly missing. | |
