i'd rather get caught by the riaa and then show them my record collection just before i kick their asses out of my house
PS, does the riaa even make money off records? or just the radio tunes?
*EDIT* as in radio tunes i mean britney spears |

The RIAA is a trade group sponsered by the record companies-- they are just a mouth piece.
I would recommend either blubster or IRC for clandestine downloading. |

Who Collects the Tax? The RIAA under the auspices of the AARC. Who shares office space with the RIAA and has many of the RIAA employees working for it. I haven't been able to find one artist that was paid a cent of the money. 4% is set aside for non-featured artists, of the remainder 40% for the featured artist and 60% for the labels. To date I have not found one artist who has received one cent of this money. (Source: RIAA website) In addition every CD recorder has a $2.00 surcharge built into the price that goes directly to the RIAA |

these guys are going to hell,
i hope someday there will be a way for the artist to make money w/o a record label. |
