Insert "Hallelujah Chorus" here.

By the way, if anyone wants the Hallelujah Chorus, it's one of the 3,900 songs I'm sharing on kazaa (under the username "haha_you_cant_get_me_riaa@booya"). :D

The trade group will continue to file lawsuits against those it suspects of copyright violations but will not be able to warn them beforehand, an RIAA official said in a statement.

Er...this is better how?

This is laughable, yet alarming because the R I double A-holes are a god damned sadist, political lobby group desperate for cash and power!

it says they blame the internet for there crappy cd sales while this might be partially true maybe it is simply because there music is well, crap. I don't pirate music because there isn't anything worth looting. (Long rant on riaa jerks here) Spiffy Has Spoken.

Todays Bonus siggy is by: RIAA spokesmen
"Dammit this girl has If your happy clap your hands, thats ours! [b]Pay us $1000s or we'll eat your soul![b/]"
There will be no clapping in that house.

Now I garentee you this is whats going happen.

MUSIC COMPANY PLAN:
Step 1: Hide in bush
Step 2: Watch for stoopid teenager with headsets walk by.
Step 3: Pounce on him
Step 4: Steal his Burned CD
Step 5: Run laughing then sue him.

Optional Step 6: Regret it when the teen counter sues for assult and robbery and gets twice as much.

There are two reasons CD sales are down as I see it.

1. There's not a lot of good music out there. (On the other hand, I have pretty specific tastes.)

2. How come CD's cost so much?? I don't want to pay $30 (Canadian) for a CD, let alone a CD with only two songs worth listening to. It's ridiculus!

95% of the time people only want 5 or 6 good songs on the 12 song list. We can get it cheaper of other sites for like a buck a song for MP3's and other gadgets. Less is more.

you are all bastards, you know that? how are people like eminem supposed to afford gold-plating on their planes? Rather than being able to afford it right now, he has to wait another 6 hours before hhe has enough money. for shame.
on a serious note, yay! now i dont have to borrow my friends cds and rip the songs off them for my own listening pleasure. now i just need to have a kazaa username with z as its first letter so least likely to be randomly sued, and i can get whatever songs i desire. and i can finally get that girls gone wild ive been wanting.

I heard the RIAA is taking this to the Supreme Court as a last-ditch effort. I can't wait to hear the ruling on that.
