There is something that the lowlife idiots in the entertainement industry do not understand: “mainstream print and electronic media” are irelevant. What’s relevant now is the internet and sites such as this one from where we get our news. Mainstream print and electronic media audience is .constantly declining. Who get their news from them anymore? More and more people are learning about the criminal activities of these parasites and you can measure it by the decline of what they still try to sale. They are uncool!

Dude YOU have PROBLEMS!

If you are willing to go out and kill someone over a civil legal matter…which is ALL it is…it is not even a criminal offense….then you are out there mentally.

Don’t get me wrong….I don’t care ONE BIT for any of the legal tactics used by the RIAA or MPAA…they are real slimebags…but I am not going to say that I would get a gun and SHOOT and KILL them! Do I believe they need to be stopped? YES! But not by a gun! By a court of law…which is the only way you can do it without going to prison.

Their time will come, but to say you would murder someone just because they started a civil suit against you is just plain stupid! You would either end up in prison or death row. And they WOULD catch you, count on it.

People like you with guns scare me. You don’t have the sense God gave a mule! And in case you didn’t know, the right to bear arms is NOT a right to go murder people because you don’t agree with them! Get that straight.

You don’t need to own a gun if all you can do is think about killing someone that could possibly sue you!

If it were my mother that they were pillorying, it WOULD BE THEIR WORRY!!! I would wait for their slime bag lawyers to come out of the court house, and I would pick them off with my 30-06. If their bought and paid for police force were unable to stop me, then I would pay a few RIAA executives a visit too. Unfortunately, it seems that violence is the only way that common folks can get justice these days. It would be worth the needle to see these damned cartels brought down to size if they did this to my family.

This, I believe was the intent of the framers of the U.S. Constitution for guaranteeing the right to bear arms. They foresaw the day when big money and corruption would rule the governments and court system. I’m all for boycotting these bastards and starving them of their revenue, but unfortunately, there are still many who continue to buy from them. I only wish that someone who is put through the ringer would feel the same as I do about it.

With the start of sue’em all came my start of boycott. I’ve not bought a single album since and am not likely to ever do so again as long as the cartels think this is the way to do business. My money is a vote in what I believe in, it’s withdrawal from spending on certain products as vote as well.

I do not support the cartels and their slimey methods they use today. Nor will they ever recieve another vote for their product with these sort of actions as a demonstration of what buying something from them supports.

The RIAA really is disgusting. It’ obvious why they are going to these extreme lengths: they want to get the message across that if you p2p their copyrighted trash, they will come after you and they will make your life a misery until you cave in with a huge, crippling payout.

Together with the lamescream media (nice moniker Jon ), this tactic is supposed to gradually put people off doing p2p, in case they get one of these nightmares on their backs. The more they make people suffer, the louder and stronger their message. This is why they spent thousands on lawyers fees to get $300 back, in a story here the other day. The message is the harrassment that person endured and that they eventually *paid*, regardless.

Only this shit isn’t working and people are sharing more than ever. Good.

I’m sure they will push to the point where the defendent actually dies (eg Schwartz) and then simply move on to the next person connected with them, if possible.

I reckon this class action lawsuit is going to eventually derail them and put some of the top nobs there in prison for extortion, racketeering etc; and it can’t come soon enough.

Thanks for the update. This is why I will NEVER, EVER purchase music again (in any form) from any labels who are members of the RIAA - especially Sony (music or electronics). I go out of my every chance I get to warn my co-workers, students, friends and family not to buy Sony products or anything from RIAA record labels.

If we dumbbell Americans would WAKE UP and pay attention, maybe everyone would stop buying this shit from these companies and bring them to their knees financially. We could do it overnight if we didn’t have such a simple-minded, immediate gratification mentality in this country.

Wake up America and quit financing these corporations!
