prohibit this, prohibit that, tell everyone "no, you can't".. blah.. it never stopped anyone, really, and it never really will.. they can litigate and legislate 'til they're blue in the face.. the fact is, there are billions of us and only a handful of them.. they can't arrest everyone.. information Is free.. you can't really control it, in the long run.. it just moves and propogates of its own accord.. all you can do is slow it down a bit.. so this undermines a profit center.. too bad.. thats what you get when you want a profit good or bad?.. who knows.. but mp3s aren't going anywhere soon, piracy isn't going anywhere soon, and sure as hell Music isn't going anywhere soon, either.. if it isn't napster, it'll be something else.. if it isn't the internet, wait awhile, another transmission medium will creep in.. sure, its currently the most widespread and accessible method of distribution currently available, but it won't always be that way.. nothing stays the same can't we all just get along????????!? heh
whats the fuss?.. the air was no different.. we didn't wake up the next day to a shining sparkling new future.. what changed?.. nothing.. why get all uptight about it? every second that passes takes you closer and closer to the burning fiery frenzy of destruction that awaits our media driven joke-excuse of a culture.. view each moment with mounting dread, o people
