“Warner is being ordered to do additional public relations in the music education field, a great area to recruit performers into their slavery contracts.”.

The contracts that performers mostly sign with record companies can be called anything but slavery contracts. They are almost always stupid contracts (for the performer) but they are signed voluntarily, even when not understood by the performer who did not get legal advice before signing.

In some instances the performers, a low percentage of them, do quite well, in particular when heavy payola is done by the record company.

Oh, now I get it…..

Warner is being ordered to do additional public relations in the music education field, a great area to recruit performers into their slavery contracts.

-The corrupt Warner and Sony employees stay on their job. Surely their next victims will be the shareholders and of course the royalty receivers. If in doubt see here to see how Sony paid the royalties to my family:

-Warner and Sony before only do payola in New York. Eslewhere they are plain honest, harworking decent folks.

-Only Warner and Sony do payola?

What a sweet deal for the entire RIAA !!! The RIAA ethics comittee must be having a party to celebrate how they get away with it.

They actually stream their show continuously and play stuff you’ll never hear on the commercial networks. Should point out that they don’t play censored tracks so occasionally there’ll be some naughty words. Just so you know. If anyones interested check out their website.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention. This isn’t a commercial network, the only ads are for the odd concert, their tshirts and stuff and promos for regular shows. In other words you aren’t gonna get harassed by morons trying to sell you shit. At least not very often.

Warner’s statement is like a movie studio saying “films shouldn’t be made with the viewer in mind”.

If that isn’t the biggest “fuck you” to radio listeners, I don’t know what is.

I strongly agree that the terms of “settlement” isn’t on par with the level of intentional violation. Considering they got nearly 30 years of willfull violating after it was ruled illegal, the price turns out to be not even pennies on the dollar that was returned in sale.

Yet the poor bugger that camcords will recieve a far harsher sentence for a far lesser violation. He won’t make any money on it but he will certainly recieve time in jail as part of the guilty sentence. Those of the cartels have gotten the big head because money solves all. Put some of those big theives in jail and you would not have to worry about the FCC straighting it out. Most would try to protect their own butts and consider that a prime objective. With these slaps on the hand it looks like another cost of doing business and nothing else. The volumes of money that are pulled in through the cartels make this a mere pittance if it ranks that high.

Rafael Venegas’s dad may not be rich and famous, but he sure has a son that is willing to give the cartels Christian Hell for what they did to him. Rafael posts some very good blogs exposing these bastards for what they truly are. I also have seen his website. I wonder how many other p2pnet.net readers have been screwed or bullied by the cartels.

Blogs like these are really giving the music cartel a hard time. We need to post this information to as many blogs as we can in oreder to force the LameScream media to pick up on it. If we keep these cartels in the news for another few weeks, I think it will really bring them down to size. Warner, Sony, and company really need a lot of bad press. Let’s dig up the dirt and get it into the spotlight. It will also be very nice if we can see how we can expose the people in congress who pass their laws. Maybe it can be a p2pnet.net reader’s investigation.

in other words, business as usual. if Spitzeer really seriously wanted to make an impact he wouldn’t let these guys get off for pennies compared to what they’re worth.

Now, payola destroys culture and also the receivers of money and favors into prostitutes. This is what America records companies and music publishers have done with the music in my country. This is a 5 on my crime scale. What Hitler did was a 10.

With movies, payola is not used, The film companies simply control the pupett distributors and the theaters. Back to music…

But who will go to jail for payola? No one, I expect, because in corporate America only the disadvantaged are prosecuted harshly.

The case was already fixed with shareholder’s, not personal, money, which is an even worse type of corruption.
