    Not all mp3 traders use Kazaa. I dont, nor any p2p file sharing network filled with kids and script kid wannabes.

    The mp3 file is nothing more than a file type, the compression method itself isnt illegal.

    They just dont want you ripping a cd and trading it.

    Yep that's pretty much it too. I have a shitload of MP3's on my drive too, but they're all from my cds.. It's just easier to put songs from a bunch of artists in a playlist than having to switch cds all the time..

        The problem with it is that a 12 year old probably wasn't aware of the fact that it was wrong, especially if her MOTHER paid for the service. Older people ARE aware that the RIAA is out to get people, so I wouldn't think they could find a child, who relies on a PARENT for advice, guilty of something she wasn't aware of.

          She's be someone's kid before they finished delousing her.

            I personally have over 800 cds and I used to drive around with two CD books with 200 cds in each but it just got too bulky. So I bought a 20GB MP3 player and hooked it up to my car, ripped all of my CDs to MP3 (that took about a month), and transferred them to the MP3 player. So now instead of having 400 CDS in my car that could get stolen, I now have an MP3 player that I don't leave in my car.

              Hey LadyM, I think there's a good chance the mother didn't even know what the RIAA was.

                  JEEZ.

                  i was kidding just like anything else parents need to watch their children.

                  Truth is parents should be put in jail and the kid should be sent to an orphanage.

                      puh-lease ...they don't have to come right out and say "Steal and transfer" anything. They know damn well, most of the MP3 players will be used with illegal downloads. Not everyone who owns an MP3 player, will go the distant you went. They only care about selling the product.

                      I'm not saying downloading MP3s illegally is right, I said a membership type of thing would be good etc. I also said I buy CDs anyway. I used to tape songs off the radio when I was a kid I still bought the tape. Burning CDs just happens to be a lot easier than cassettes and of better quality. I just think they should work on a better solution, than suing a 12 year old.

                        It's crazy that they are suing even a 12 year old girl... personally I use file sharing to find music I would never have heard of on the radio...

                        If a band has more then 1 good song I usually go out and buy the CD (if it's reasonably priced... i can't afford more then 12-13 dollars for a cd, im still in college)

                        Recently though with the price of CD's being 15-20 dollars, my choices have been limited.

                        I can go buy a DVD movie for the price of a CD... and get special features!

                        Fuck the RIAA, if they want to boost their CD revenues again then they need to bring the price of CD's down where people with regular salaries can afford them!

                          I buy more CDs and movies now than I ever have. I'll start writing my own songs and playing more guitar, if I can't download and see what I like anymore before I buy.

                          I understand the RIAA is hurting, but I think there are more productive ways to succeed than this. Times are changing...and they're falling behind.

                            Okay, who would you like me to throw it at?

                            I DO NOT steal music. I pride myself on paying for CD's. Downloading music is stealing. Period.

                              Music isn't porn and porn isn't music. Music is supposed to be art, not a product. A real artist just wants his art exposed to the people. If you say that people can't listen to your songs without buying them, you're saying that your music really isn't art.

                              Fuck the recording industry and fuck all the "musicians" that are destroying the artistic creativity of a generation.

                              If you wanna see the real effects of file sharing, look at bands like the white stripes, the strokes, etc. Also look at all the independant artists that have made big record deals lately. The people trying to manufacture and package music purely to make money are getting weeded out and real artists who've been playing music out of love for decades are finally getting what they deserve.

                              What's next, museums suing art books and poster companies for duplicating great works?

                                Yeah, you can also look at the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Phish, Tom Petty, Neil Young, and all the other musicians out there that let people record and trade music for free. They still make millions every year, because they create something that lasts, and they continue to work their ass off.

                                  Well MP3 players are a move in the right direction as far as technology goes, and I don't think you can fault the manufacturers for trying to stay competitive with each other and get their products out in a market that's going to only grow as time goes on. It's not their concern how the people get their mp3's. It's business.

                                  I do believe the problem is with the record companies when you come down to it. People aren't buying albums because of the recording industries philosophy the past 15 years or so. All they care about are the singles. They don't work on developing bands, or even working with the bands to make their albums good. All they care about is that one song so they can make their money. I believe that if they worked on developing bands so that bands would churn out full albums of good songs album after album, as happened before the mid 80's, they could put a dent in the declining numbers of their CD sales.

                                  just my

                                    Maybe the Mom was actually downloading the music and had her daughter take the blame so she could get away with it. Either way it is just ridiculous.

                                      Those bands know that the real money doesn't come from album sales, it comes from the live shows. All of those bands/artists have made a ton of money from touring.

                                        I was thinking that too.
                                        All they have to do is see what songs were downloaded to know who the culprit is.

People aren't buying albums because of the recording industries philosophy the past 15 years or so. All they care about are the singles. They don't work on developing bands, or even working with the bands to make their albums good. All they care about is that one song so they can make their money. I believe that if they worked on developing bands so that bands would churn out full albums of good songs album after album, as happened before the mid 80's, they could put a dent in the declining numbers of their CD sales.

                                          just my

                                          Agreed. And they charge $20 for those one or two decent songs on an album. They're finally getting the right idea.

                                          But how many years has it taken? Technology is making the production and recording process simpler and closer to the public. The RIAA needs to be working on things that are "exceptional"..."above and beyond" what you're little brother can do on his PC in his bedroom. Instead of overcharging for crap.

                                              Agreed. And with many artists, including big name rap acts, recording in home studios using Pro Tools backing the process, it drops the recording costs significantly for the record companies. The only cost that has gone up for the record companies is "advertising"... basically the money they pay the radio stations parent company (not mentioning names) to get their song in the rotation.

                                                      I'm sure this will set precedent so as the next time some kid steals something like your car, shoots the kid next door, or even steals a candy bar, not to mention trash your paint job, that the Police will just turn them loose.



                                                      Sorry Eros, now you have TWO that have NO songs on their systems (And I searched our whole network too, nadda) In fact only one of our systems has a sound card with speakers. lol We buy it or don't bother with it.






                                                      Momo, did you upgrade your heap yet? We have that 5th parking space out back just waiting for your bicycle or car. WHatever it is you have.

                                                      Go comisserate with jayxxx that ONLY had some dope, got popped and then wrote an accusing page about the crooked cops that did it, while fully knowing the cops WERE crooked. (and he expected NO retaliation? Can we say DUH) He needs the support from such law abiding citizens.


                                                      how would she have reacted if you had been sued by the RIAA? Mine would have brought me snacks while I served my time just like she did my brother when HE crossed the law.

                                                        I agree with you, the story sounds fishy... because tracking down the owner of the internet account at an ISP is the way RIAA is serving people with infringements.

                                                        They know that it's most likely minors downloading songs, so they are going to hold the parents accountable.... so how in the world did they get this 12 year old's name for the lawsuit?

                                                        Sounds like the reporter needs to do some more investigating, instead of trying to sensationalize on a story.

                                                        The real sad issue is the last line ""It's not like we were doing anything illegal," said Torres"

                                                        Napster seems to have mis-educated people that downloading music is not illegal... how sad... cause it is illegal!

                                                              Didn't the RIAA say they were only going after people who were _providing_ songs for download when they first annouced these lawsuits?

                                                              I'm certain that several articles I read emphasized that point. Downloaders were being ignored in the first round of suits, only 'uploaders' needed to worry.

They still make millions every year, because they create something that lasts, and they continue to work their ass off.


                                                                That's because they make their money by going on tour, selling tickets and t-shirts.... The Record Label makes money from the selling of RECORDS. So of course, the artist wouldn't mind letting people download and share their music, they make so little off of each album anyways.....if more people get their music, then maybe more will see them in concert.. that's where the money is at.

                                                                Look at the paradox.. if it weren't for the Record Label, they wouldn't be stars.... how many big stars made it by internet-only release with no backing by a major label??

                                                                    I was a recording engineer in LA/NY through the mid/late 80s and I've watched what my friends in the industry (engineers, producers, execs, and artists), have gone through with the napster stuff.

                                                                    There are a LOT of bands that don't get picked up for a second album for a number of reasons, but one of them is definitely that sales go way down when the artist gets popular on the internet. If you all think that the record companies all make millions all the time, try signing a band, advancing the money to cut the album, then promote them, then try to create a video and get a buzz going so that you get rotation. 90% of the time....even if you have a GREAT ear for A&R, you will lose your ass! After all that, watch while somebody downloads all your work and risk for free, and tells you that it is their right to do so.

                                                                    I don't know what the answer is, but if an artist doesn't want to give their music away for free, then it is their right to charge for it.

Fight the patent is no better than her nemisis Acacia!! lmfao rotfl Steals with her right and yaps out the left side of her mouth. I wondered when this would come out. I always did have a kind of wonder from her other posts to when she switched nicks. Helmy should shut you down, HARD. No difference. Acacia at least is up front about it instead of hiding on a p2p anon program. ;-)p


                                                                              Eros, if I even THOUGHT of breaking the law, I'd have alot worse waiting for me when I got home than the cops would dole out. lol We have NO mp3's and don't want them. Don't have a player either. Or a dvd burner. We have a cd burner on a system thats on about once every 6 months.

                                                                              So don't act like EVERYone steals. We don't. And nope, no concept went over MY head like you ask Donovan.

                                                                                  So don't go pointing fingers about downloading some music.

                                                                                  We've got people with full on sex on their tours, no warning pages, 2257 records in a mess, snorting coke and doing all kinds of other illicit drugs at "industry gatherings," and aftwerwards driving home under the influence of whatever it is they do.

                                                                                  Shall I go on.

                                                                                  This list could go on...but of course we all know downloading music is much worse ;)

                                                                                          Ok, I will pay you 3k now I will counter sue for invasion of privacy

                                                                                          Cyber Crimes. Bring it. There are many loop-holes to expose.

If your sharing is off and they find a way into your computer and scan for the shit.. then yes... I would agree... but other than that... I really think that since you open the door, you cannot complain who enters.

                                                                                          Use Lensman's program and get the most for your hard earned traffic.
