To RIAA: for once, think about the people's need and feeling and forget the $%^&! business!!!

And althought they think they are accomplishing something by shutting down torrent sites, they can't stop sites like OINK. Days after OINK went down 10 more sites went up to replace it.

I think www.musicneutral.com shows potential, if we all got a community together then we could decide for ourselves. Any other ideas? Indeed the record industry blew it!
