Ooh, rolleyes. This is serious business.

I think this is a great idea, but its going to be very difficult to convince people to NOT buy anything released under one of those labels. I would like to see the association reformed, not completely run out of business...

I see your post all over TA so one day about a month ago I decided to download your mix (Breaking Daylight) from your sig. I�ve had no reason to tell you what I think about it till now. I seriously started laughing, it blows.

Now thats not serious bussines but it shows your DJing skills are lacking, sorry man.

I completely agree. The RIAA has to much power in the US.

That's a pretty laughable attempt at trying to divert attention away from the actual topic. And I thought the rolleyes-only post was bad.

Well, I could lower myself to your level and comment with something about your spelling but I'm not even going to bother.

Seriously - how does anything you just said there have anything to do with this topic or how fucked up the whole concept of that site you gave is?

*Dons flame-suit*

Now now kiddies, take those shenanigans to the COR...

Shit talking is over. Lets talk about this topic.

Do you like what the RIAA does for you? Do you understand why alot of consumers don't agree with the RIAA? Do you think the RIAA is fair with the artist?

Most people have no idea what RIAA actually does - they're just kids who are pissed off that they aren't allowed to download the top 40 music they think they need and blame RIAA for everything. So, they think that if they stop buying certain albums (which they wouldn't had bought anyway) because the label in question has some relation to RIAA it's actually going to hurt them, when in fact the only people getting hurt are the artists/bands.

Thankfully enough I live in a country where Recording Industry Association of America has a very minimal effect on me.

Well fucking said.

and the RIAA can claim whatever they want. If it's noise, it's theirs.

Go to the SoundExchange site: http://plays.soundexchange.com/... and take a look at the hundreds of indie labels for whom SoundExchange claims they have collected royalties. Enter some of those label names on http://www.riaaradar.com/... and notice how few are actually members of the RIAA. Contact the label and ask if they are a member of RIAA and they almost certainly aren�t and may not even be aware that SoundExchange is collecting royalty fees on their music.

Why should I use it? Just as people can currently find out where some products come from and who made them (Is this banana organic? Does this milk contain growth hormones? Were these clothes made in a sweatshop?), it is important to have that knowledge for as many consumer goods as possible. Knowledge is power, and knowing where the product came from can (and should) influence what you buy.

riaa doesn't cover anything that I listen to anyway

Considering the RIAA has been trying to get royalties from online radio and almost has successfully done it. I would have to agree.
