Blame the internet? Blames yourselves, RIAA.

The RIAA has every right to want to end music piracy. But putting someone in jail for downloading a song isn't the way to go. But it doesn't have to be. I garauntee you no one here has the balls to download a song after they get a supeona in the mail.

The RIAA can send them out, sue the biggest violaters, and drop the charges on the rest. It's like speeding when a cop is driving behind you, you just don't do it. Send any person a supeona and they will stop downloading songs immediatly.

And no, I don't download songs anymore. Never was a big fan of it, never will be. I've used iTunes for 3 songs, the rest I just buy the CD.
