  1. Re:Independent Artists on RIAA Grabs Student's Life's Savings · · Score: 1

    We might even acquire radio DJs that can actually pick songs on their own instead of reading them from the list that their idiot manager has supplied them with, based on the latest profit optimization algorithm. On what radio stations? ClearChannel owns them all, and they're not interested in what local audiences want. I've met a couple DJs and my understanding is that they can only play what they're told to play, even though they know it sucks. Grrrrr.

    $18 Canadian? That's cheap compared to what CDs go for in a retail store down here...

    I've bought two CDs in the past three years--I prefer to spend my money on live music. $20 US for for one song worth listening to and 12 songs of crap, or $45 US for a couple of hours of music worth listening to performed live, with flashing lights thrown in free? More money for the concert ticket, but better value.

    If you're patient, JoAnn's sells those patterns for 99 cents about one weekend a month. I'm an embedded software engineer only to pay for my quilting habit...I started both at age 21.

    You really can't tell the difference between counting the number of cars through an intersection in a given interval and keeping a list of everyone who passes through that intersection from now until forever?? We seem to be getting the government we deserve.
