My thoughts from an AIM convo that my friend didn't respond to. But I thought it would be appropriate to put here.

WeekendLazyness: people need to rise up against the RIAA
WeekendLazyness: of course
WeekendLazyness: it's been happening
WeekendLazyness: but
WeekendLazyness: only in limited numbers
WeekendLazyness: and it usually focuses on copyrighting and infringed songs
WeekendLazyness: these groups need to be unified under a different purpose
WeekendLazyness: to tell the RIAA that they don't control us
WeekendLazyness: and MPAA, for that matter
WeekendLazyness: we own the airwaves
WeekendLazyness: and those organizations have no right to tell us what devices we can tune into those airwaves with
WeekendLazyness: this is a capitalist economy
WeekendLazyness: it is a free economy
WeekendLazyness: you are free to fail
WeekendLazyness: frankly, i think it should be illegal what the RIAA and MPAA are doing
WeekendLazyness: telling the FCC what to do
WeekendLazyness: and suing their own customers
WeekendLazyness: it should really be the other way around
WeekendLazyness: in both cases

Your thoughts?

Who are the RIAA, MPAA, and FCC?

Who are the RIAA, MPAA, and FCC?
US organizations.

RIAA - Recording Industry Association of America (music cartel)
MPAA- Motion Picture Association of America (movie cartel)
FCC - Federal Communications Commission (US Government Organization that controls the airwaves)

So they control people from broadcasting certain things... that sucks.

And they sue they're customers for sharing music.

I think you just uninetionally defined why they don't let people curse on the radio, nobody ever says one curse word per radio session...either they don't swear at all...or they bring down all hell and swear like crazy.
