Nah I have a ton of pirated music I just don't delude myself into thinking that it's ok.

[/ QUOTE ]I didn't say its ok.


the recording industry needs to find a way that purchasing music is as convenient/easy (ie cheap) as downloading free music.

Define "ok." If you mean "legal," then I would say most people are smart enough to realize that what they're doing is illegal. If by ok you mean morally, then uhh wtf dude. You think what you're doing is wrong AND it's illegal yet you're still doing it? That's completely retarded. What's worse is that you're judging people for doing something that you do yourself.

can you quote RR doing this judging?

Until the post you quoted, all I've done in this thread say that "everyone does it" and "they waited too long to start enforcing it" are both illogical arguments.

Really, when you think about it, RIAA should pay <u>us</u> for taking the time to listen to their music.

quick question to the no-IP people,

Assume that whenever a piece of music is sold (be it CD/vinyl/itunes download/etc), the person were forced to sign a contract stating "I will not [insert long list of things RIAA doesnt like]. In signing this contract, I understand that I can be found liable if I do these things. And these are the possible fines [insert list of fines]" If they didnt want to sign the contract, they werent allowed to buy the music.

Would you then be OK with the person who breaks that contract being sued, and forced to pay damages?

Only if copyright were consistent with patent or vice-versa.

If a guy takes a dump on a post card and frames it, his rights to it last life plus 70 years. If a guy invents a feces repellent post card, his rights to it last 20 years. 136 years for dump on post card, 20 years for microfiber post card. It's shameful.

Even more shameful is what the patent office is willing to issue patents for, and the things people are even allowed to copyright.
