Sopa

I am sick and tired of what I am hearing from those who support the Stop Online Piracy Act. So I would like to see if you all would do this.

first, Starting this Saturday and going till Monday at Midnight, Do not purchase any Music from the big record companies. Unfortunately this will mean not buying any music from Amazon and other good companies but we have to get the message to the RIAA and MPAA that we will not take this and we feel SOPA will destroy the net. Now when you join this boycott and there is no signup for it, its voluntary, Do not buy Music on line, in the store or from a catalog company. This goes for movies too. And also, no illegal downloads. No download at all for Music and Movies. Lets see if money will convince the RIAA and MPAA to back off and call for a study of the situation and for a new bill which will NOT destroy the net.

To the RIAA, I feel if you reduced record prices by 80 percent piracy will go away almost over night. You have the power to talk to the Record Labels and get them to go along. CDs cost less than a dollar to make and charging upwards of 19 bucks is just insane. Reduce the price by 80 Percent and watch Piracy go away almost overnight. This also goes for the MPAA too. If the big studios would slash the price of their DVD's and cost of attending a movie at a theatre by 80% No one will want to illegally down load the music. Also you need to make Legal DVDS more available universally.

Thank you.
