RIAA Not Sharing Settlement Money With Artists

Posted by kdawson on Thursday February 28, 2008 @11:08AM from the play-nicely-now dept.

Klatoo55 writes "Various artists are considering lawsuits in order to press for their share of the estimated hundreds of millions of dollars the RIAA has obtained from settlements with services such as Bolt, KaZaA, and Napster. According to TorrentFreak's report on the potential action, there may not even be much left to pay out after monstrous legal fees are taken care of. The comments from the labels all claim that the money is on its way, and is simply taking longer due to difficulties dividing it all up."

The people of Alaska knew that if they drove a car oil had to be transported, they knew the risks too.

HELLO-O! WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE! These bastards are NOT your friends!

Yes. This is yelling.

You know what? I don't give a shit.

I've been yelling at these ass-munchers for years now. Why the fuck would a stupid little filter here on Slashdot stop me?
