I'm a musician and I in no way support RIAA's fascist overreach into music culture on the internet as well as its extraordinary clout in getting government agencies to do their bidding. Corporatism like this is destroying the organic transmission of culture for profit, and it's using our allegedly democratic government to do their dirty work. The RIAA can rot in hell.



SO if I liked your album and I was broke, it's cool if I download it for free?


So you havent heard? The RIAA won their lawsuits, collected the money, and havent passed it on to the artists whos rights were violated. Shades of piracy!
