    Well as a loyal slashdotter, I absolutely love the INDUCE act now that I know Steve Jobs invented it.

    As soon as it comes in lavendar I will order 3 and astroturf here endlessly about how awesome and innovative they are!

    As a member of the American Federation of Musicians (I am a freelance musician in Chicago) who has performed and recorded in royalty-pay situations, I can tell you that the artists are the FIRST to get the shaft.

    Please do not EVER confuse the RIAA and MPAA with actual ARTISTS.

    Seems to me that you have confused yourself with "artist". Hack hired-gun note-monkeys are not artists.

    ;)

    What a friggin moron. Canada is a morass of spineless, culture-less, socialist, lazy-ass idiots suffering from identity crisis. Are they even a country?
