TELL THE RIAA YOU DON'T APPROVE OF SUING CHILDREN!!!
How low will these corporate scumbags go?
I'll tell you how low...
The RIAA sued a 12-year-old girl for downloading music files!!!
Her mother, faced with financial ruin by evil men (probably in $1500
shoes), has been strong-armed into settling out of court for $2000 and
has removed file sharing from her computers.
You saw it on the internet, TV news, or in the paper. You know it made
you sick to your stomach. You know you wish you could DO SOMETHING
about it.
It's time to SCROOGE these GRINCHES once and for all!!!
This Christmas, boycott music. Don't buy music recordings as gifts for
anyone. And don't buy gift certificates from record stores.
The only way the common citizen can fight the corporate giants and tell
them they don't like their legal tactics is to BOYCOTT.
They don't care about music. They only care about money.
SO DON'T GIVE THEM YOURS!!!
It may not be reasonable for a full-time boycott of these monsters,
since they currently have the music industry by the nose.
But we can sure send them a message.
DON'T LET THE CORPORATIONS HURT OUR CHILDREN!!!
BOYCOTT MUSIC THIS CHRISTMAS!!!
Beyond boycotting on your own, you can help by doing the following:
1. Copy and paste this message into an email and send it to all on your
mailing list.
2. Print out this message, make copies and post it in music stores,
record stores, or wherever it is allowed and would be effective.
3. Bring up the subject in conversation. Tell people you are boycotting
music this Christmas to protest the shabby treatment of a little girl.
4. Repost this message in as many newsgroups as are appropriate.
> How low will these corporate scumbags go?
As low as the human imagination.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha ............. An honor student to boot!

Amazing, huh? Oh, but haven't you heard the conservative matra for the
last 30 years? Government and it's regulating business practices are the
problem, not corporate pirates. And those generous and patriotic men in the
$1500 shoes are going to get together and take care of us .............. BIG
TIME! : )

I like it ....... But then again, I haven't bought anything in 15 years
other than Zoogz's CD, and personal friends I want to support. I never give
my money to those pirates, and if I do have music I didn't pay for, and feel
the artist has not done well and deserves my support I will personally send
them a check and take the middle men out of the picture.
This is about them hanging on to the last vestiges of the old order and
trying to get every last bit of the big money out of the system before they
have to change to the new digital/internet delivery system. Steve Jobs is
trying over at Apple, but as long as they are charging 99 cents a song they
are still not getting the message. When they get it down to 5 cents a song
this thing will burst wide open and they will start making the real money,
as well as the artists.
