6. Will the RIAA give all the money it's wrongfully taken?
Forget CD prices are a ripoff of their own accord.

Forget that when you buy a CD, listen to it, realize that 11 of the 12 tracks are crap, can't take it back because the 'no returns' policy assumes you're guilty of copying it :eyes: ...

Forget that when you buy a CD that's copy-protected but nobody ever told you, you try to play it and it won't play in your computer because it's protected or in your CD player because it's just not compatible, you can't return it because the replacement disc won't work either...

The RIAA takes 8.3 cents out of EVERY blank CD-R or CD-RW sold, their excuse being it'll help pay for the damages inflicted onto them by those evil pirates. :eyes: Of course, for every disc you use for data or audio discs of music you 'legally own', they shouldn't be getting a damn penny. Pot calling kettle black, they're thieves too. Just bigger ones.
