The answer is in the communications above.

“RIAA’s similar program, RIAA tells us, is even more profitable than the sale of CDs.”

Same as RIAA, same as Directv, the settlement of lawsuits ($5000 each) is far more profitable then just selling a product. There leverage to get your money in a settlement t is that you will give them there $5000 rather then pay an attorney $7000 to litigate. The problem is very little proof has to be provided to get you to into court. I had a satellite company make up a story and take me to court in an attempt to get $5000 from me. I won, I didn’t have to pay the satellite company nothing but had to pay $7000 to an attorney. Didn’t pay the satellite company anything because it was all made up.
Worse, the government defends the companies right to make up a story to the court and sue. I no longer stand behind the government for assisting in this strong arm attempt by court to take my money.

…people who simply refuse to buy and read any newspaper? People who never even LOOK at a newspaper! What are ANAL going to do about these reprobates who are costing ANAL’s members valuable revenue? Often for years at a time!

It’s an outrage!

Why would the RIAA and the MPAA need Anal assistance?

we all know they are a pile of fucking assholes who seems to think that their shit don’t stink.

Do really think they need anal suppositories or do seem to think they need a very large supply of condoms when they complain about their customers are fucking them in the ass when they excercise their legal fair use rights ?

I hear every member of the US congress is good at giving the MPAA and RIAA good head for them to buy them off especially around election time………………..

What if you go to Subway, there are lots of left behind newspapers every morning that you can read for free. The under paid employees don’t care if you enter the store just to grab the newspaper, since that counts as cleaning up the tables a bit.

If you’re thinking this ANAL organization sounds way too bad to be true, your Sarcasmotron is in working order. Congratulations! No further action is needed.

If you’re thinking this ANAL organization sounds a lot like that ESPC embroidery software coalition thing, your “Snarky Similarities” Sarcasmotron plugin is also fully functional.

Is it also an act of piracy if I go to the news stand in Wall Street and flip through a newspaper without buying??????????
Is it not ridiculous that an act which if performed in real life does not constitute piracy would rather be adjudged as piracy simply because it was performed on the internet. RIAA and ANAL are entering into an unholy alliance detrimental to the freedom of the internet.
