the thing that really ticks me off is that canads gets a bad rap in shows like South Park, but yet they have all of these cool things like copyright laws that noone (authority) cares about, and mounties, and the digital media laws are less "evolved" than the us. that's it! i'm moving! and what happened to the music being about the fans? oh that's right it was taken away around the same time that they saw the hot shot record labels weren't making four kazillion dollars a week. i'm so sick of all of the RIAA bullsh*t. either the laws need to evolve or the music industry needs to evolve. don't charge people for the music, charge for the software, that'll end the battle real quick. i'll admit that i enjoy downloading songs every now and then, but if i find one i really, really like (rare occasion, because music sucks nowadays) i'll go buy the cd. what's wrong with a little preview, especially with bands you can't hear on the radio.

and doesn't the computer have to piece together the song once you've downloaded it, which diminishes some of the parts, creates "holes" where you get some static? cause a lot of the music that i've downloaded, even at high bitrates has static. wouldn't that or the fact that the compression throws out parts to the song, make the copyright viod, since technically it's not the same song? just wondering.
