She gets drunk, then goes and gets married for god's sake. ]]> 78295@blogcritics.org Thu, 5 Aug 2004 16:01:03 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/10/01/101011.php#comment-17691 Exactly. The RIAA will lead itself to it's own demise. Thier not realizing that thier simple pushing people away from sales using thier strong arm tactics. I DL music and if I like it enough I will purchase the artist's productions. Now I will never purchase any artist supported by the RIAA. Don't they realize thier making fools of themselves and thier affiliating artists? Besides, there's so many ways around thier "network scanning" software it's pathetic! Long live FOC!

That site reminds me nothing so much as the Brain on Drugs ads from wayback. Not only will it not make dowdloading uncool, it will make the artists themselves look uncool for being so out of touch. By tomorrow morning there will be good parody sites - the 2002 parallel to the classic poster "This is your brain on drugs ... with bacon and toast" that hung in the cool stoner's room. ]]> 1136@blogcritics.org Tue, 1 Oct 2002 19:07:47 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/10/01/101011.php#comment-1135 Very well put!!! I entirely agree with you - now if the music industry people would stop looking thru their emerald glasses - maybe things would change. But alas, they have this disease called <b>greed</b> - which is a strikingly similar spelling to <b>green</b> - which happens to be the color of money... ]]> 1135@blogcritics.org Tue, 1 Oct 2002 13:44:55 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/10/01/101011.php#comment-1134 Excellent job. I'm pinging your piece (and we all know how much that hurts) to my Digital Songstream blog. BTW, I've got an article called <a href="http://www.digitalsongstream.com/talking-back-to-the-artists.htm">Talking Back to the Artists</a> at that site, offering specific rebuttals to some of the musicians quoted in MusicUnited site. ]]> 1134@blogcritics.org Tue, 1 Oct 2002 12:36:33 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/10/01/101011.php#comment-1133 Very nice job, John, thanks! I couldn't agree with your assessment more. ]]> 1133@blogcritics.org Tue, 1 Oct 2002 10:35:28 EDT
