Re: RIAA Dirty Tricks [Was: Re: Homeland Security Official Sugges ts Outlawing Rootkits]

 I have to admit I'm impressed with how low they can go. I'm particularly proud to be one of those with a nice Yamaha 
keyboard and friends - whever we're in the mood for music, we just play, feed it into a recorder or a MIDI sequencer so 
we can listen to our stuff whenever the mood strikes. All of the radio stations here in upstate New York are owned by 
CleanChannel, so there's no radio, get all the movies I want to see from the library, and haven't bought or listened to 
any commercial droning of so-called music in years. I support local bands who welcome folks who bring a tape recorder 
along to their gigs.

 Maybe if more people did this, RIAA would be meaningless. As a former "artist" I remember how much the record 
companies paid me (NOTHING) and then tried to take a piece of my gigs on top of paying me nothing in royalties, but 
always reminding me of their "production costs" and how I should be paying THEM for the right to sing the blues.    :)

 No sympathy for those Gotti-ites from this quadrant. And yeah, that's who they are.   :(
