The funny thing is that they couldn't survive without us consumers out there. Even though RIAA complains about file sharing, they still make a hefty profit of 40-60% PURE PROFIT from all record labels. (Even with the reduced price from $18 - $10 a CD). Funny aint it? They thrive of off us, they're killing themselves, let it be.

Alright, as everyone might know - The United States tries to scare the population into believing something, for more info on this watch "Bowling for Columbine." But onto the real issue here.
RIAA states that 40,000 people have deleted all their music. These 40,000 are based on, and I say this term loosely, "rigged" polls. To a certain degree, one can easily see that 40,000 people who are being monitored by such companies like RIAA or the MPAA would delete their music. So right their you have a flawed poll, definitly inaccurate. their are over 87 million people in the US that downloads from P2P networks, I seriously doubt that they will scare everyone into not doing it anymore, I mean they cannot hand out 87 million lawsuits for roughly $3,000 - $9,000 each. Oh well... Be Proud and Download! =)
