MP3 Download Prices to Rise?
OBeardedOne writes "The major music labels are in talks with music download services attempting to get them to increase the price of music downloads. " Sounds like there is division in the ranks of the music companies, but something to watch.
Only if you buy them. If you steal them then they are still free.
A feeling of having made the same mistake before: Deja Foobar
"I feel they ripped me off, therefore I am justifying in stealing their music."
Really, fucktard, don't you get it? You're a thief. Don't try to rationalize it in front of the world, just admit that you steal music.
There, don't you feel better?
"but I figure that the record companies have ripped me off enough (I always buy full CDs if I want the whole CD), so it doesn't really matter."
How the fuck did the record companies 'rip you off'? Seriously?
Did they sell you something that wasn't what you thought you were getting? Damn, I bought this new Brittney album and I was told it was good music?
Did they force you to buy it?
Did RIAA Thugs came out of a back alley and told you to give over all your money and in return they handed you a stack of discs?
Did they come into your house in the middle of the night and steal your shit?
I'm sick of this rediculous meme that the music companies are ripping anyone off. Its moronic. Are you an artists? Did you forget to read the fine print or took on the industry lawyer your label 'provided' you? If so, you are still a moron.
Geezus, you are a fucking moron...
If you are going to be a prick and take artists songs without paying them at all why do you even bother paying the pricks who did it? Are you retarded or does it make you feel all warm and fuzzy because you did, at some point, pay something.
Coming from someone that has been on both sides of the label as both a recording artists as well as working in the woodwork, let me tell you that you don't have a fucking clue, dumbass.
That's what you get for using Windows...
Tell your dumbass girlfriend to get a clue.
There, don't you feel better?
Research before you act like an asshole.
