The major recording labels, and their lobbying group, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) are engaging in highly objectionable practices. They have created copy protected discs that will not play in a computer. They have shut down the original file trading service, Napster. They spend millions creating "protected" music, limiting what we can do with our own music. These actions violate our rights. In addition this, the retail price of compact discs continues to skyrocket as the cost to manufacture discs comes down. To buy a single song online you have to pay 1USD. They have colluded to fix prices in violation of anti-trust laws. We urge all consumers to refrain from purchasing compact discs and DRM protected music to punish the recording industry for these actions. Feel free to look around. (find the old site here.)
