  1. The enemy. on Ask Singer Janis Ian About the RIAA and Online Music · · Score: 1

    Hello. Just a few points/questions. What does the copyright law say? Who owns your copyrighted music? Who signed the contract indicating ownership of the copyrighted music? I love downloadable music, I love being able to search for whatever I can possibly think of and finding it, free for download. I miss napster like you wouldn't believe. When I drive 77 mph in a 60 mph zone, guess what, I'm breaking the law. It doesn't feel like I'm doing anything bad, but nonetheless, I'm speeding and deserve a ticket. If you don't like RIAA, don't sign your life over. If you want your music freely available to the general public, God bless you for your generosity and free spirit. Just abide by the law of the country. Record the music yourself, distribute the music yourself. Be happy.
