the RIAA needs to go f*** itself!

Geez, finally checked out the site, those are some rock bottom prices!

But I'll stick with iTunes, thank you.

CDs are not fragile. In fact, I have never heard of one accidentally breaking. If it becomes broken or scratched beyond use then you need to be much, much more careful.

...You've never had a broken CD, nor heard of one being broken? Come to my house.

I think the RIAA has done a little too much

Good for them, actually. Yes, there's a lot of hard feelings, but this is what they should have been doing from the beginning.

Sue the people distributing MP3's illegally en mass for a profit, NOT the individuals.


That said; AllofMP3 charged $10 for unlimited access. The RIAA would make $1 per song download.

How the heck does the RIAA think they can sue for $150,000 per song? The most you can imagine in damages would be $1 per song.

Because that's what the law says you can sue for. The high amount is supposed to act as a deterrent... you know, "don't steal a song that's worth $1 because the punishment could be up to $150,000".

I've broken a few CDs, and they sure as hell aren't fragile. As long as you don't use them as frisbees or coasters, or **** up the optical surface, they should hold up fine.
