Re: wtf?

Not that I agree with the RIAA, but the logic is that iPods would not be nearly as popular without the products put out by the RIAA.
The same can be said about CD players, tape decks, albums, and every other form of media digital or analog that can be used to store and distribute music.

I have never heard such an absurd argument, but then again it is the RIAA and it would not surprise me to learn that is exactly what they are thinking.

We already do pay a tribute to the RIAA for CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs as well as recordable media. It's called the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992. For 13 years the Gov't has forced us to give money to the RIAA for these things...because they complained enough about losing money on them.
