RE: Come on, guys. If I can see the difference between NTSC and 1080p, anyone can. It ain't subtle

"If we can't support the protection of intellectual property, copyright laws, etc."

Get real. The way RIAA has degraded the word "intellectual" it no longer has any meaning, much less value.

"Digital content poses real problems and I don't blame studios for working on copy protection mechanisms."

That's propaganda. CD sales is up, not down. The music industry has never been healthier. The only thing that is down is the sales of Britney Spears CDs. RIAA wants us to cry because Britney Spears CDs don't sell as well as they used to.

The music artists should sue the intellectual dwarves at RIAA, if anyone should sue anyone. RIAA is the music artists' #1 enemy. RIAA has alienated everybody by declaring war on the Internet, technology and the music buyers. Their biggest blunder, of course, was to fight the SACD. What a bunch of idiots.

As for copy protection. I have a useless copy protected CD. You think RIAA is going to refund me for this, the only CD I have that sounds so horrendous it's unlistenable? I do not give a damn about the money. It's that they ripped me off and the insult of being assumed to be an idiot that bother me.

I do not download anything. The artist I like I support. I'm not a gatherer. But I do support every illegal downloader 100%. I cannot do much, but I will do everything I can to hurt RIAA.
