Like the RIAA will stop us........it will fail just like their copy proof cd's. The RIAA is getting crazy and even artists that are supporting them.......are leaving them. See planning is one thing, making it work without problems and holes is another thing. As dmx stated in his famous ruffryders anthem....TALK IS CHEAP MOTHER******!

have these people nothing better to. thats just REALLY annoying to hear...corporations spend millions on crap like this..WHAAA COPYRIGHT BLAH BLAH STEALING IS WRONG.....go do something usefull like feed the hungry or help the poor. bastards! the only way they are getting my music is if they pry my cdrs out of my cold dead hands. although i wouldnt be surprised if they found a way to legally justify doing that..cause im a "thief"

lol it'll never work

Posted by DJ TranceFormer on Aug-29-2002 20:43:

word, but still, they are just fucking nuts! i mean i know that we all will still keep on listening to our music just like we do now, but damn! fu(king barcodes in the music!

Posted by SportTrance on Aug-29-2002 20:43:

Yeah its not going to do shit. Don't worry about it. The RIAA is just way too late.

Always remember this.

If music can be heard, it can be recorded.

Bloody hell

RIAA,when are you going to realize that the war on music sharing is one you CAN NOT WIN??!?!?!?!Go spend your money on something worthwhile,like helping up and coming artists for instance,instead of showing even more of your greed by making futile attempts trying to stop music sharing.You're just showing how greedy you are,and that you don't give a rats ass abut the music what so ever.

That article is close to two years old...

I don't see any barcodes or w/e. Besides, most of us listen to vinyl rips. Not CD rips.

Old article.. napsters already dead.

The RIAA can keep trying all they want, the will never be able to completely stamp out piracy.

Even if i have to rip CDs, and trade mp3s by mail, i will still do it.

Thursday announced a project to develop a worldwide, standardized system for identifying digital music files so that the owner of a recording's copyright can easily track its use and collect royalties

How do they expect to do this?

quote:
Sherman likened the system to the bar codes on merchandise bought in stores, but instead of appearing in print on the package, the code would be embedded in the digital content. It would include any limitations on the use of the music, such as an expiration in a set number of days

Not gonna work, it will be a total failure. Sure people may rip directly from a CD and get tracked, but if you record the music indirectly, like through total recorder or from a cd player to line in then the bar code isnt passed along.

What does the RIAA think they are doing? Are they trying to disempower music listeners by trying to supress the normal way music gets around and trying to make users pay for it instead? I dont think so.

Surely there are way around anything...well almost anything.

May be they should spend less time on fighting mp3s since they are loosing a lot of money just to implement systems that wont work.

Its just like app and game piracy, its all a bunch of politics bullshit and money money money!

Even if this article was recent, and they did go through with it, people would get around it just like they have been for years its not a big deal.

Oh and when it gets ripped this barcode shit won't work (even though it dosent exist).

Well...they can't track it without an active internet connection to the computer. So this won't work. Nothing the RIAA develops will work.

Whoever made that comment about using total recorder is right. That way they can't get you, and it's not exactly hard to use problem solved!

Also the majority of trance/dance mp3's are ripped on vinyl cuz they're not availiable on cd. And you can't get codes on vinyl

Posted by Blake613 on Aug-30-2002 20:10:

Hmm, anything that can be encrypted and be decrypted. All people will be doing is getting "craked" mp3s, however weird that sounds.

Bleh, but this was written almost two years ago and the RIAA has done nothing.

Posted by DJ TranceFormer on Aug-31-2002 04:41:

yea, I didnt look @ the date... Im not worried, I know that they cant do shit, it just kindda makes memad and laugh at the same time cuz they are trying so hard, and spen a shit load of money on something that they will never win... saaaad

Posted by jdat on Aug-31-2002 23:10:

just remember :

tape piracy used to be an issue ...

I saw a thing in a mag the other day and it was taken from an old logo that said : taping at home is illegal and it had the shape of a tape made into a skull..

the most hilarious thing.

Posted by netw3rkd on Aug-31-2002 23:44:

Yea Disney introduced some piracy thing..

If you tried to copy a VHS tape the copy would be messed up and all scrambled. But meh..VHS is dead.

Posted by Dmatrox on Sep-01-2002 01:59:

Just record from DVD to VHS

Route your video cables and sound cables from DVD player through a VCR player then to TV is usually what i do when recording a DVD. Most of the time, im too lazy to get a VCR tape to record it anyways

Im mad at the RIAA from taking away AG It was the best thing to use and had a lot of stuff on it.
