Yes I know what you mean about beating a dead horse
Ya good day eh as we canucks say
Oh sure, rub in the old guy thing, LOL
Just to be really clear, though, I never share music over the net unless its my originals. just google [bwmac] and you will see what I mean.

Right, and its against the law to spit on the pavement, cheat on your taxes, cross the street against the light, oral sex in some states, speeding, smoking pot, being an honest politician in Washington DC (that's not illegal but what politician is honest?), drinking or drunk in public, menstruating without a license.
Desperate people do desperate things and it's obvious that the RIAA (Really In An Avalanche? Restricting Inconsequential American Audio? Receiving Illegal Audio Always? Recording Immaculate Audio Automatically? Really Idiotic Angry Attorneys?) Artists are artists, because they are artists. Businessmen just want all of your money. And they'll kill you to get it. I mean like who's really upset about ripping off Michael Jackson? The rich will continually get richer. The poor will continually get poorer. Thanks to the RIAA. I've never known any buddy who's made one lousy cent, from any royalties paid, on any independently produced recording, ever. So just who does the RIAA benefit? Michael Jackson.
I live a risky life and always will.
