In reference to the first Reader’s Write, I’d agree.

And so does “Weird Al” Yankovic.

…and now you know why the labels don’t want to pay the artist the same for digital downloads that they pay for physical media. They see this as a way to get a pay raise for funding.

Isn’t it funny? Writers get paid off digital but artists barely see anything. If that were not enough they also want the ability to deem a work a promotional and under that category have the right to pay absolutely nothing.

What amazes me is that they carried many of the charges for physical media that have no corresponding relation in digital downloads. What sort of material do you put on a digital download for packaging? Artists are charged for packaging in digital downloads so I’m really curious on that one.

I think that they are lying.
If they don’t I know some people that will become very impatient to see them die and act accordingly.

Do we have to wait until 2014 to see these parasites dead?

No way! We might need to undergo some military operation in there!

Soldiers. . .

People, don’t buy music from Atlantic records!

They are litigators, not innovators, and are frequent guest on Recording Industry vs The People blog.
