RIAA's latest news - P2P-Zone

TankGirl · 10-10-04, 02:30 PM

Somebody on Slahdot noted that for the first time all the 'latest news' on RIAA's website were just about the lawsuits they have filed. I had to check myself. There it was: no news about music or artists at all, just ligitation and legislation.

well geez, i thought the riaa was all about the business of music too.

[sarcasm] seems you p2p folk have stolen so much content i guess this is will be the only way the riaa can expect to see a profit in the future. [/sarcasm]

alas, the wolf sheds its sheepskin for all to see.

should any of us really be surprised?

just think of how many lawyers will be out of work when p2p steps on the RIAA's cantaloupe like head ?

lawyers must love (rich) musicians..

this makes me wonder what sort of music does a lawyer like..
and how do they get it ?

I have no idea what kind of music they like but I'm sure they get it with highest possible integrity:

Quote:

An investment counselor went out on her own. She was shrewd and diligent, so business kept coming in. Pretty soon she realized she needed an in-house counsel, and so she began interviewing young lawyers.

"As I'm sure you can understand," she started off with one of the first applicants, "in a business like this, our personal integrity must be beyond question." She leaned forward and continued, "Mr. Peterson, are you an 'honest' lawyer?"

"Honest?" replied the job prospect. "Let me tell you something about honest. Why, I'm so honest that my father lent me fifteen thousand dollars for my education and I paid back every penny the minute I tried my very first case."

"Impressive. And what sort of case was that?"

The lawyer squirmed in his seat and admitted, "He sued me for the money."
