Exactly! How is the RIAA's behaviour any different than that of Microsoft's? Microsoft continually buy out any threatening technologies and mould it for their own nefarious purposes. They also have a multi-billion dollar smear and publicity campaign going on, never mind their intimidation of retailers. Read more about their tactics here. The RIAA and MPAA are using and have used very similar tactics. It's not illegal to have a monopoly, but it is illegal to leverage that monopoly in order to put your competitors out of business!!

Hilary, Bill and Jack may as well be having a public threesome, as they are so obviously in bed together! What with Palladium and copy-protected CDs that are only readable in windows, would anyone be surprised if the BSA/MS/RIAA/MPAA united to form The Hitler That Never Was ™ ® © ?
