Do you feel guilty about downloading OwB?

[the real stuff]

dunno if anyone else has been checking torrent sites, but on demonoid there's a labeled torrent "Oblivion with Bells" that is actually a music video of Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up

And I could link to the article that says the RIAA is running out of money for all these lawsuits. You only get fucked if you are sharing files and especially files from major label artists. Your scare tactics are sad and useless. Did yer good buddy George bush ask you to post that? Show me a settlement where someone was simply downloading and not uploading/sharing files.

Ha ha! You dumb ass! I actually think the record companies are twats for doing this stuff. $220,000 for 24 songs? That's ridiculous! I only posted the link because it's freakin' scary how badly they're screwing people...messing up this woman's life over what would have been $23.76 in music sales? That is the work of a horrible entity.

For the record, I don't generally participate in file-sharing myself, but I also don't think that people sharing files really hurts artists in the long run. When you consider the additional exposure, and the fact that many people, like myself, will still buy the albums if they like the artist enough, then the complaint becomes kind of moot. I've actually discovered a few artists I never would have from a few years back when I was participating in more file sharing. I've since bought every album by Bola, all the stuff I could find by Tom Middleton, and some others.

Why do you make all these ignorant assumptions about me? You've been wrong pretty much every single time, but you do it with such anger and certainty. It's pretty uncalled for.

Precisely why I stopped buying as many cd's as I once was.

Notice that this was a civil trial, not a criminal trial. I don't see this as a win for the record industry as she can dodge the payments for a long time.

The RIAA spends millions of dollars in litigation to only get back $222,000. No wonder the music industry is so awful.
