OK since I am new around here and not everyone knows a lot about me, I believe in freedom. I don't think that someone should charge money (at least not too much money) for things like music, software, education. I have no problem with them charging too much for merchandise, or tickets. But .99 for a song that you can hear on the radio for free. I mean the radio station is paying for it but they make thier money from commercials.
OK so now onto my reason for writing this today (I had to stop before I ranted for several pages) I play guitar, purely amature for my own enjoyment. I have not played in a while and decided to go online during a break I was taking from working today. So I did my search for the tabs I was looking for and a large portion of the sites I clicked on gave me a message that they have closed or are reorginizing due to thier ISP getting threatend by the RIAA and its alies to sue these ISP's for distributing tabs not "licensed".
This is the biggest bullshit I have ever seen. I meen now we have to pay to play the music we like on our instruments. Fuck them its time to take a stand. You know I'd love to have a million dollar plus home, and 10 plus cars that cost 100 grand a peice. Not only will they sue you to "steal" the audio of their music, now they are trying to stop you from learning to play it as well.
Support only bands that are against this kind of bullshit. Take the music they don't want you to have. When are they going to learn that they can't stop the freedom of expression and ideas. The RIAA and its amigo's are going to drive thier monopolistic industry right out of existance.
FUCK THE RIAA MPAA
