Reviews for "US vs RIAA"

Ehh..

Well..It was short, and not overly informative for the most part..

I think some of your numbers and facts were off..

Four million people are *not* five percent of the total population of the United States..I believe the number that generally gets thrown around is 250 million living with the borders of the US.

You spoke of Kazaa and Morpheus as if they were two entirely independant networks. Last I checked (It's been a while since I've used Kazaa/Morpheus/Grokster/etc), if you're connected to Kazaa, you're connected to Morpheus, as you can download from people using both programs. The main difference between the two is graphical, and maybe the spy/ad ware they use. Personally, I use WinMX.

Next, you pulled a liberal media kind of trick. Yes, I'm sure they're suing the parent or guardian of a 12 year old somewhere, but it's not like that's their main target. They're going after college network "gurus" who are sharing thousands of files.

That might all seem kind of picky, but when you overexaggerate things, or leave out certain facts, it takes away from your message.

Well..That's my two cents..Do I think music is over priced? Yeah..Especially considering the quality of bands that come out nowadays..Am I for the RIAA? Of course not..But I can understand their position..If I was a rich as hell CEO, I wouldn't want to have to take a few million dollars worth of pay cuts. Have fun watching this crap that only got through because of it's message. Personally, I blammed it. :)

Worst anti-RIAA movie ever

You say that the RIAA is so greedy that they sue 12 year old girls and make sure that CD prices are ridiculous. I agree with that, but just because music is over priced doesn't mean it should be legal to steal it. Instead of showing how P2P programs can be used legaly and mentioning artists you don't mind if people share thier music, you make it sound like you just want free music that someone made to sell for money. You may be just as greedy(not really possible) as the RIAA. You could have bashed the RIAA on how they want to infringe on people's privacy by wanting to know what's on your hard drive, but you made a bad case.

I didn't give this a 5 or sign the petition becuase for all I know you work for the RIAA!

RIAA can eat a big, floppy donkey dick...

I must say this to those bastards in the RIAA...

"All you motherfuckers are gonna pay. You are the ones who are ball-lickers. We - the 60 million Americans who you are trying to sue - are gonna fuck your mothers while you watch and cry like little whiny bitches..."

Let's see you dickheads try and sue me for sayin that!!!

Thanks for voting, vadar_1!

Your experience points gave you a voting power of 5.10 votes. Your blam and protection points gave you an additional 2% of your experience power, meaning that your total vote power was worth 5.20 votes!

The more experience points you have combined with BLAM and PROTECTION points, the more your vote is worth!

You gave this entry a 0, lowering its score to 3.35!

Everyone knows about all that, we don't need your shitty flash on NG.

Wasted effort

An internet petition is worthless. Who you gonna send this to? the RIAA? You think that the CEO is gonna read the petition, see the light, and change is mind about sueing people and give up millions of dollars cause some kids want to download music for free? you think music artists are gonna give up all that milk and honey cause 30 million people giving them the shaft, want to continue stealing from them unhindered by the law? Fat chance!
Its time for you guys to pay the piper for all that digital freedom you took for granted these past few years. As for me, think i'm gonna download some new songs, cause up here in Canada, under section 8 of the Canadian Copyright Act, its ok to download mp3's.

CANADA RULES!

Actualy the petition is gonna be sent to congress, NOT the RIAA.
