    I doubt it. Would be awesome though. Someone on a another site said he's gotta beat the tax evasion charges now, which could be tricky. Fight not over for Oink, still this is a great victory and makes me sleep easier at night. :P

    That guy's name is Trent Reznor, leader of Nine Inch Nails. You can read about that here. Believe me, I have no idea why I am able to find all these articles. :D Times changed, that's the bottom line. Everyone feels the same way as you do, people who are using iTunes are not satisfied...

    The lawsuits are just a last gasp scare tactic. It's over and they have lost, they know it and everyone knows it. They're gonna continue suing grandmothers and kids untill they run out of money and see they've accomplished nothing. What bugs me most is the term "criminal". 10 years ago when I...

    DRM = Digital Rights Management It's also one of the problems, basically you pay for something that is protected and will play only on a certain device. If you payed for something you should be allowed to what you wish with it, not be limited by any means.

    It's expensive, it's DRM, it's low quality and yes, it's expensive. Artists should get more, but they don't, record labels do and there in lies the problem and the cause of it. I seriously suggest you read this, it might even save you a few bucks in the future.

    I just read this today and though it is long I think it makes some pretty good points, I agree with pretty much most of it. Times are not changing, they've already changed and there's no stopping it, the only thing unknown is who'll profit in the end from all this. One thing's for sure IMO...
