Serves them right, those evil pirates were a threat to the music industry and artists creativity. One might even describe those webstations operators as terrorists! It's great to know that we can continue to pay $16 for our Avril Lavigne and NOW cd's. I mean, that Avril worked her way up through the ranks of the music business. She started off singing at local clubs with a band, and then she got her big break. Oh wait...my bad. She was most likely picked out of a pool of 300 other teenage girls. Whoopsie! But still, who's going to protect her from evil terrorist music pirates.
