An anonymous reader writes "With a pretty short message on their blog, Allofmp3 announced that they will resume their music store soon. According to a Russian court, their music store did not violate any copyright law in Russia, so there was no reason for them to keep it closed."

    I wonder if this is how foreign nations plan to break the U.S., by bootlegging our digital commodities and harming our most influential industry?

      What, exactly, does this have to do with the defense industry?

    Were talking about the RIAA here.

    If you think nuclear war or an invasion of the North Pole is more important than copyright, youre smoking crack.

  7. Violating Russian copyright law is very difficult by Patrick+Cosmos · · Score: 2, Funny

    If you want to violate Russian copyright law, you pretty much have to walk up to the artist and punch them directly in the mouth, and even then it's a pretty close legal call.

    You can't compete against an arbitrary price set by someone with no expenses. And that's why people stopped TALKING once the internet started up, since they couldn't collect royalties for their words anymore. So people just remained SILENT for over a decade now. All artistic and scientific advancement involving words ceased. Oh wait ...
