Reply #29: The RIAAs sole purpose is to protect

[ChromeFoundry]

recording companies and their profits. The RIAA is not an org to protect artist's property or rights.

I am against the mission of the RIAA and feel that major record labels are no longer needed in this digital age. The more artists that self-promote or promote via digital download, the louder you will hear the major record labels bitch and moan about theft. The majority of artists receive very little profit from hard media and digital content because the label consumes it.

To further clarify, I am in no way advocating theft of content.. I just feel that there is a better way for the artists to gain more profit, and the recording labels to gouge the consumers and artists- LESS.
