RIAA

The RIAA continues to attack the market it’s trying to protect. I’ve now deliberately chosen not to purchase CDs I would have purchased because I’m angry with the RIAA. I don’t even have P2P software loaded on my computers, and I’ve purchased 1200 LPs and 1500 CDs in my lifetime. They have alienated me in their single-minded attack on personal liberties and fair use of copyrighted materials. I intend to vote with my wallet. I feel sorry for the musicians; the businessmen who are responsible for marketing and distribution of their product have lost touch with reality.
