Is a site setup by the music industry to try and 'educate' people of the 'destructive nature' of 'online music piracy' on the 'artists & songwriters' and how it is 'stealing' from them.

Well well well. So much FUD on this site I do not know where to begin really. No proof. No figures. No facts.

Without actual figures on what they think they are losing and how much is actually paid to the artists and what the record companies actually get it just does not wash.

I'm trying a new thing where comments are here. It makes it easier for me to edit them. Tell me what you think please. Jorge- IM me, I want to talk to you about this.

Only a little annoying in that I had to register. Still. At least we will know who the first posters are :)

EDIT: Also means you can correct your typos :)

I agree that comments should be directed to the fourms. vbulletin is much better software than the software used in the news comments.

However, Jorge is working on improvements to the news comments section ...
