Buk, thank you for linking me di-rectally to your post in this thread via PMs. I promptly didn't read it.

I decided to sidetrack all the subjective morality crap and cut right to the issues:

Fact 1) every high profile musician who speaks out against piracy not only NETS more than $5 mil a year (holds true for the three I knew off the top of my head) but the number of high profile musicians who are pro-mp3 or anti-inflated concert ticket sales vastly overwhelm them.

Fact 2) RIAA stands for Recording Industry Association of American, and by definition the artist isn't who they are protecting. They are protecting the inflated contracts made by record labels.

Theme: the moral correctness of allowing journalists employed by a biased market economy news selling institution dictate what the consumer should believe under the guise of unbiased reporting.

To sum: ---- you, buk, you suck. :-*

That would be the "Business Ethics" category... and JD isn't Adam Sandler :P


Present a question for your paper... flip it back on the artist about the ethics of selling music (if you can call it that) at an insane price. Bring up the popular artists' target audience (poor, low-mid class teens) and how they can sell an album that costs the same price as their food budget for a week.

Whats the difference in the fine for stealing a CD from a store, and getting caught "stealing" music online?? I'm just curious if they are grossly out of proportion
