Haha, ya, everything's fine until you get caught. Like my bros friend is a cop and he was pulling a guy over and right when he was about to get out of his squad car a drunk rear ended him really hard. But imagine if you were the drunk guy,"How the fucked he get here so fast??? Oh..... fuck...." -
Hmmm... perhaps you would feel differently if it was your music that was being illegally downloaded and it was you who were the one losing money? Contrary to popular belief, not all musicians are rolling in $$$. We need our royalty cheques and when people download our tracks for free, we quite rightly, get annoyed.Comment

The issue here is not whether its right or wrong to download music; i'm not going to get in a morals debate with all of you. The issue is that its friggin dumb for the record industries to attempt this ploy in the first place, when eventually it will not work! In the meantime they're gonna piss off alot of people, lose alot of money, and waste alot of peoples time. And the end result will be no different. They have to know when to cut their frigging losses, and deal with the inevitable!Originally posted by squarebearHmmm... perhaps you would feel differently if it was your music that was being illegally downloaded and it was you who were the one losing money?

Hahhahahaha. Yeah, sure. If recording companies weren't overstuffed gluttons, we'd be able to buy new release CDs at 5 bucks apiece and they'd still have a profit margin that's through the roof. A blank CD can cost as low as 10 cents apiece with volume purchase. Initial costs of the burning and logo stamping software might be high, but after that, it would cost, at most, 2 dollars to produce a full CD with jewel case. Even if you want to assume that shipping one CD would be 50 cents (which is extremely high), 5 dollars would be a 100% profit rate. Most businesses can only dream of margins like that.Originally posted by Diabolicusi suppose so. or just dont be an idiot and dont steal.
Personally, when somebody's gonna try to rape my wallet for thier own gain, I'm not gonna sit around and take it like a cheap whore.You fail.Comment

Want to know the reason why people DOWNLOAD more and BUY a whole lot less.
They make millions and millions and millions and they want to keep making millions and millions and millions because they are never satisfied. Record companies are practically set for life every single one of those fucken workers just by having an artist like britney spears or whoever you want... ANYWAYS
We download cause it's FREE obviously...
We download cause were TOO LAZY to go to the store
We download cause we dont feel like PAYING 30$ FOR A 10 SONG CD WHEN YOU CAN MAKE A 20-25 SONG CD FOR FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Comment
