On why the RIAA is failing and boning the artist *language near the end* -Really really really long

RIAA's response

I'm with her on this, stupid Recording Industry

I read this a while back.

**** THE SYSTEM.

i misread it as Courtney Love Does the Meth.

Well, that too, but... :p

But I agree. The record industry has completely overstepped it bounds, and is choking the life out of music.

and how the RIAA and its buddies are pressurizing apple to up the cost of songs on iTunes is another example.

I. Love. Courtney. Love.

She read Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson. She quoted him at the end: "A great writer named Neal Stephenson said that America does four things better than any other country in the world: rock music, movies, software and high-speed pizza delivery. All of these are sacred American art forms. "

wow, here I was thinking courtney Love was just some talentless slayg who killed the bloke from Nirvana.

Thanks to that speech, I now hate the music companies more, and courtney love...slightly less.


.. she's still a talentless bimbo I say. But she spins a good yarn.

if(getThingFlags(source) & 0x8){
  do her}
elseif(getThingFlags(source) & 0x4){
  do other babe}
else{
  do a dude}

That speech defies everything I know about Courtney love. If she really said it, I do have a tad bit more respect for her, but not much.

I agree with it. Have for years, as a matter of fact.

Exactly what I said after reading the ENTIRE THING.

I know a few guys who almost made it big in the music business. Had a band up here that was REALLY nice. A record company wanted to sign them [the story is going to sound fake because I can't remember which record company it was, or their band name. I know the lead singer's name, though!] but one of their parents is a lawyer, read their contract, did this same math, and told the boys to give the record company back their pieces of paper because they were making more at JCPennies.

I'm glad that my parents are better than that.

And don't worry Kirbs, I believe you, anything can happen in Minnesota.

Haha. The name of the band was:

"And Then I Turned 7"

I talked to his old girlfriend and asked.
