Price-Fixing Settlement Checks in the Mail
toastyman writes "Remember the Music Industry $67m settlement from way back in 2002? Seven months later than planned, your $13.86 check is finally on its way. In addition to the cash settlement, the defendants in the suit are also giving 5.6 million CD's to educational programs."
I am looking forward to some hot and very pleasurable penis-vagina interaction tonight.
There is a whole thread about apple not having DRM (while the fresh new windows media player has it). There are even people saying apple will never have DRM. How wrong can we be...
The site where: "I'm right, as long as you ignore the things that prove me wrong", became a valid method of debate.
Welcome!!!!
Hi, I'm new to SlashDot so I hope I'm not doing anything wrong
I just wanted to say it's great that how the people won out this time against the corporational greed of the RIAA, no doubt there some geeks working in the background, and although we'll never know their names let's take a minute and think about how much worse we'd be if it weren't for them and what _WE_ can do today to improve the lives of our fellow humans.
With love,
Lyssa Watson

I for one welcome our cheap, low check-giving overlords. I might as well add a soviet russia or insensitive clod. comment, but I'm not going to put people through that much pain.... In soviet russia, check pays you! -or- Im not gettin reimbursed, you insensitive clod! (Couldnt contain myself)
Maybe they intend to start of small by ousting the "First post with my XBox" guy and work their way upto the GNAA?
Your 7th grade teacher, according to your post.
Why are there only 19 people folding@home for slashdot?
Yesterday at the public swimming pool, two middle-aged ladies were chatting by the shallow end... I had also gone to that area... Near where the filtered water is returned to the pool... People like to stand around there... It feels a bit like a Jacuzzi... The older woman who was also a bit heavier was saying; "I'll be forced to vote on Friday... because I'm a retiree... I'm worried that if my ID card doesn't show the election stamp, they may stop my retirement pension... And my daughter is also a university student and it my affect her too..." The other woman who was wearing way too much make-up replied somewhat irritably; "What is all this talk? I'm on a pension too but the section on my card for election stamps, is cleaner than a Mullah's rear-end" ...
The way she talked, did not suit her grace... and although the past two or three years on the Internet my eyes and ears have been opened to so much, I still have not had the privilege of a pilgrimage to any Mullah's rear-end to judge it's cleanliness.
She then said that she has a son who is an MD, another son that is an engineer and her daughter has studied law and neither one has ever voted, and without having suffered from it. Then the chubbier lady said; "Yes, but then if they want to leave the country or become somebody here, you'll understand!" The other woman replied "In fact, they traveled abroad too and one is an assistant professor in university and attends seminars all over the world regularly...They make up these stories to get us to vote"
I didn't stay longer to see if the chubby lady was finally convinced or not... I could see some doubt on her face... Had I stayed longer, they would have known I was eavesdropping. But this time, even the religious studies teachers have instructed their kids to as their parents to not vote! This time, people are not as scared... Particularly after the Bam earthquake, the little respect some had for these guys (regime) is gone.
Sure. Zero 7 and Kinobe (Zomba) kick ass. I think Tantric is pretty good too. There's Moby, Fatboy Slim, Massive Attack/Tricky, Joe Satriani, ... Jet's single is kinda cool. There's pleny of decent suff. It's just mostly drowned out by the crap that gets over-marketed to ensure high sales figures.
Surely you meant that backwards? Possessive would require the use of an apostrophe, whereas the contraction would not.

Lawyers were Clinton's second-largest contributor too!
Guess who was the largest? It was "unknown" - maybe that includes the Mob & Chinese?
