		<description>I sure am glad I am Canadian and dont live in the fascist states of America. Is there anything that is not illegal over there? I bet not. Now I am going to light myself a big almost legal and soon to be penalty fee joint and download a film legally. Then if I feel like it I will check out the escort column in the newspaper. In the rest of the paper I can read about our politicians who are not invading other countries to get a hold of thier oil. Oh - I forgot we have oil in Canada too. I guess that makes us terrorists....Chuck in Canada and fed up will pushy neighbours</description>

		<description>You can&#039;t be serious!!!

Here&#039;s a question I would like for you to answer.  Does the RIAA and the 5 big record labels have a stranglehold on mainstream music?

		<description>You know what?

I can&#039;t stand all this ranting about &#039;RIIA wanting to control your life&#039;.  You have absolutely no respect for the people who make music. 

 You treat people that have spent many hours every day for decades practicing, so that they could make you feel better, cheer up, and enjoy music.  

You are the people that make making and doing music as a career  an unviable option.  Why?  Because musicians get paid for their jobs less than fucken cleaners.  They have spent more time educating themselves for their profession than a fucken professor in a university!  

Oh come on, now you are beginning to rant about how all musicians have &#039;enough money&#039; and that you&#039;re so poor that you can&#039;t afford to buy CD&#039;s.  Well let me tell you something.  The money paid for every record supports small artists.  Now progress is making small artists rely on their day-time jobs instead of making music and making people happy because record companies don&#039;t have the funds to invest in little bands and artists.

And being a musician isn&#039;t that cheap.  Have you ever heard of a proper grand piano costing less than $10 000?  Have you ever thought that single effect racks in a studio, just to make a single reverb that you can&#039;t hear and only feel and sence it&#039;s absence when it&#039;s gone, could cost 20 000?  Have you ever even thought that setting up a small semi-pro studio couldn&#039;t be done with less than a million?!

As for the financial problems, you don&#039;t go and justify a robbery of a jewelry shop by &#039;Well because I can&#039;t afford it, I decided that I desperately needed it and that&#039;s why I stole it&#039;.  Well you know what?  Fuck you.  You&#039;r just sad little wanking pussies sitting in front of your computers not caring about anybody but youselves.</description>
