[rant] I just saw a commercial for the music industry to try to get people to stop downloading illegal music. They talked about how when we buy CD’s it pays the salaries of all these people, and helps to send there kids to school, and little Timmy wants a power rangers lunch box and if we do not buy the new Britny CD, he might have to brown bag his lunch. And it made me think…. I will buy CD’s again when Justin Timberlake or Puffy can no longer afford a new Bentley sittin’ on Dubs with spinners, and DVD players in the head rests, or multiple, multimillion dollar houses… If little Timmy asked one of them for a power rangers lunch box, they would smack the kid upside the head and ask, “What’s wrong with you boy??? Get real”
ALSO... did people get in trouble for "taping" songs off the radio? The stations buy the songs, and use advertising to pay for them. Someone buys the CD, rips it, and gives it to the world on line. No one but the music industry makes any money (other than office max for the blank CD's)… SAME FREAKIN THING!!!
Why should people pay for CD’s and music in general when these people make more in a single day, for two hours work, than most of us make in a year, plus overtime? I am not opposed to being rich, but I am opposed to taking advantage of people…
DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON BASEBALL PLAYERS… MANY OF THEM CAN KISS MY A**
