http://gear.ign.com/articles/749/749883p1.html Damn tards. Trust the RIAA to want to give the artists less, but get more. I doubt the greedy leechs would care if a band barely got by, once they got their money from them :mad:

Aggressively litigious group has claimed to protect musicians in the past. Now believes musicians deserve less for "innovative" music distribution.

Damn tards. Trust the RIAA to want to give the artists less, but get more. I doubt the greedy leechs would care if a band barely got by, once they got their money from them :mad:

RIAA executive VP and General Counsel Steven Marks said. "We hope the judges will restore the proper balance by reducing the rate and moving to a more flexible percentage rate structure so that record companies can continue to create the sound recordings that drive revenues for music publishers."

So THAT is what they do! And there I was thinking that it was the artists that created the sound recordings.
