Hello Mark…first episode I heard by you. I really enjoyed it! I totally agree about the RIAA thing. Yes, why are these dummies in the RIAA spending the big $$$ on a futile “witchhunt” when we are given the technology at our fingertips to download music, etc (as well as to burn cds/dvds)?? If we download to enjoy something we like and are not using for our own profit or commercial purpose, what is the big issue? Many bands in recent years have supported giving people the option to download their music at a “name your own price” policy which could also be for free if one chooses. This was famously done by the likes of Radiohead & Nine Inch Nails over the last few years…and statistics proved that the fact they did this still greatly increased their sales profits later anyway!! I myself am a band person and I would totally support this way of putting my music out there.
