RIAA About to Transform?
It has been reported for a while that the RIAA was suffering some cutbacks and dwindling support, but techdirt is reporting that the cuts may be even deeper than most originally suspected. Who knew suing potential customers would ruin your business? "I'm sure some will somehow 'blame piracy' for this turn of events, but it's hard to see how that's even remotely the issue. The real issue is that the RIAA has basically managed to run one of the dumbest, most self-defeating strategies over the last decade. Rather than helping major record labels adjust to the changing market, it continually, repeatedly and publicly destroyed its own reputation and the reputation of the labels — each time shrinking their potential market by blaming the very people they should have been working to turn into customers."
...a Z Transform, a Laplace Transform or a Fast Fourier Transform?
It's a small world and it smells funny; I'd buy another if it wasn't for the money; Take back what I paid (SoM)
I do, however, once RIAA is dead and buried, intend to dig them up once a year on the anniversary of their death just to make sure they're still dead.
Understanding the scope of the problem is the first step on the path to true panic.
What, are they going to go from 'suck' to 'blow'?
Sig? What sig? Do I have to have a sig!?!?
Well I would imagine the excess employees will be much in demand as witnesses.
We've always known when it comes to the RIAA there's more than meets the eye, but witnesses would truly help expose their deceptive cons.
Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure everything I just said is completely wrong.
