Comment Why do you all support this? (Score 1) 394
I am dismayed by the amount of support I've seen for allofmp3.com .
It's disgusting that people will bitch and complain about paying for a legitimate copy of something, but nevertheless will pay cold hard cash to someone who gives absolutely nothing back to the artists. Sure the record companies rip off artists left and right, but at least they pay.
I've downloaded mp3s before. I've used Napster. I know what IRC and bittorent are. (I guess thats a given being on slashdot).
Hell I even can tell you the names of some prominent hacker groups, as if a google search couldn't reveal this information already. However, I have not once paid for stolen property. Why? Because its Fucking Stupid to pay anything for something that is illegal in the first place. You're flushing your money down the toilet, while your only return is something that could get you in trouble. I'm sorry but I like to get into trouble for free.
So whine and bitch the allofmp3.com no longer takes your Visa cause you'er too dumb to find out how to get your illegal downloads for free. And tell an artist he's lucky that his band is getting blatently ripped off. And next week you can all donate to Pirate Bay.
