sometimes i feel like RIAA, the american government and friends are going to end up shutting down the underground dance scene for once. the problem is that, as an underground community, we are a minority that represent nothing in the society

Funny, did those mixes contained songs by RIAA artists, or something? Because otherwise, I hardly see how RIAA can justify the legal ceasure of material over which it holds no right whatsoever.

It doesn't matter to the RIAA.
When did being legal EVER matter to the RIAA?

I'm not sure why everyone is so angry. The article wasn't talking about proper, licensed CDs; it was referring to homemade CDs that aren't legal to sell anyway. Obviously you're not allowed to record a mix, slap it in a jewel case and send some copies to local stores...

i thought that if you put "for promotional use only" on it and sold them for just enuff to cover the cost of making the cds that is was ok. almost every local dj in my area sells cds at the dj booth for like $10 a pop.
alot of times thats how i find out about some new music and end up buying the vinyls of the songs that i really like.
