MUSIC INDUSTRY DIRECTIONS
1. Take a successful service (an alternative to the traditional business model) and screw it up by demanding more money.
2. Watch sales drop -- BIG.
3. Blame P2P, Apple, phases of the moon, "global warming"... ANYTHING other than accepting personal responsibility and considering that people might have higher priorities for their money than overpriced music.
4. Sue the pants off people and rake in the cash.
5. Repeat.

So number three might not work for them. |

I was wondering how much this could be used as a defence in a copyright violation.
Lawyer to Judge:
"My client tried to follow the law and bought ITunes music, but the RIAA shut them down - Now he is being sued by the RIAA for getting his music elsewhere." |

There is no such thing as global warming.
That is if globabl warming means that industry is creating it.
That's rubbish, it's just part of the natural occurances of the Earth.
I don't believe in globabl warming, but that's because I can think for myself.
Some people just go along with what's in the news, and theres a saying if you say something enough times people will start believing it.

| Considering that more water is contained in ice caps than in the ENTIRE OCEAN ON THE PLANET, you should give a flying ....
If all the ice caps melted we'd be completely underwater. The entire planet. Everything. Skyscrapers, all of it.
Mile-wide chunks are breaking off. RECORD sized ice caps are breaking off into the ocean. (sizes never before recorded) and ocean levels are slowly rising each year.
If we let that effect snowball and don't do anything NOW...I wouldn't want to be alive in a few generations to see what happens. I'm glad I probably won't live long enough to see it. |
