An anonymous reader writes "USA Today has an article about the growing friction between recording artists and the 5 major labels which make up the RIAA. Many issues are covered, including copyright reform, fraudulent accounting on the part of record labels, and how selling a quarter million albums can leave you owing your label $14,000."

    Let's feel bad for the poor band members who signed a contract without reading it

    Smart. Let's take you back to when you 18 and put you in the same situation and see how you do.

    You should have said "Let's feel bad for the poor bands because I hate the fact that they're somebody and I'm nobody. Waah waah. Anyone who succeeds is stupid."

    You don't sound smart.. You sound jealous.

    Get over it.
