Here comes the EFF in Mighty Mouse fashion swooping down from the moon with a red mist trailing his cape singing in an operatic voice, "Here I come to save the day!" Jeff Howell is Pearl Pureheart, although not a perfect fit, in this parody. Atlantic is Oil Can Harry. The cast of thousands, or millions, of downtrodden file sharers are the mice who have their hopes up that the EFF can reverse the series of setbacks in court and copyrighted music will become as free as the air we breathe. The mice eagerly await the decision as to whether or not the cheese left out on Pearl Pureheart's window sill by Pearl herself can be eaten for free, i.e. a free lunch, or do they have to pay to eat it. Fade to black as the titans, EFF and Atlantic, clash. Oooooh, I can't wait to see how this turns out, can you? Yay!

Bartok Sun, 13 Jan 2008 23:17:19 +0000 http://www.p2pnet.net/story/14632#comment-275477 The RIAA obviously hires corporate attorneys to persuade the legal system of the land to give the RIAA the right to rob, steal and prosecute it's biggest customers, "listeners of music"! Do big corporate Record Labels even deserve customers and clientele? They want their cake and the right to eat to! They want the legal system to declare their thevery legal while every one else is supposedly an illegal thief! On any other property or goods when a consumer buys goods; as in example of a car or motorcycle,etc. , he has the right to modify it or customize it or even switch motors and parts and even create a whole new vehicle! Why should the RIAA be allowed or have the right to dictate what someone does with the purchase of their products after legal sale has been made? Other legal wholesalers and retailers do not have that right - Why should the RIAA? RIAA companies are similar to prostitutes, they can sell it and still own it! What a bunch of creeps! Everyone should boycott purchasing any music at all from major record labels, these hogs do not deserve any customers at all!

Especially the legal defense! It would be VERY easy to use that in multiple cases, would it not? Very informative. Especially the legal defense!
