Fuck, this shit cracks me up. I love when the MPAA/RIAA say that they’re trying to “protect” people from getting sued.
I read the following in a p2pnet article today:
The MPAA has, of course, been ‘educating’ children for some time:
“The volunteer and the teacher worked from a 25-page classroom guide to explain the concept of using a computer to download files, which they called ”morally and ethically wrong.’ The students played roles such as ‘The Film Producer,’ ‘The Starving Artist,’ and were asked questions such as ‘Has anyone ever copied your homework? How did this make you feel?’”
Motherfuckers indoctrinating elementary/middle/high school kids. “Downloading is morally and ethically wrong.” Perhaps it’s taken out of context, but fuck, so me downloading a photo or a demo or (god forbid!) some random mp3…. that’s morally and ethically wrong. That motherfucker before movies still cracks me up: “It’s just…. not right!”
How about TV shows? My friend downloaded a couple episodes of the OC — and I remember he said a mutual friend of ours said it was “sinful and illegal” to download that, since Fox owned the copyright and blah blah blah.
My argument against that: It’s not aired on cable TV, thus free to anyone with a TV and an antenna, and hence not shortchanging anyone. It’s the same fucking thing as using a VCR, just digital. If you missed an episode, and you don’t know when it’s going to come on next, shouldn’t you be able to download it?
Personally, I’ve made DVD-Rs of Chappelle’s Show episodes I downloaded, and I’m just waiting for season 2 to come out on DVD — I got season 1 DVD for my bday. I think it’s a great thing. I wanted to do the same with Joan of Arcadia, but it never ended up working out, so fuck it, I’ll wait for the DVD. So fuck that wack argument saying it’s “sinful” and “illegal.” If I could buy the fucking show, I most likely would, but I can’t.
Anyways…. I’m out for now. By the way: THANK YOU ROUGHDRAFT for the MF Doom Special Herbs Guide!!! shit’s ill
pZ!

hehe. i’m listening. didn’t know that one about the BDP.
did you know that he samples the film Wild Style at least twice? i was watching the film and I was like hey, that’s from the fuckin operation doomsday intro. then I remembered it was older than doomsday. other time was some convo sampled in a skit. its the one where the guys like “its like the hands of doom” then the girl comes after with “yeah who is that guy anyway?” haha
yo.. dont have that metal samples release!!! #1 thing i need now!!!!!!!!!! so sweet. hey you heard MF_Doom-Mm_Food_Advance-2004-FTD?. greatest advance I ever heard- had the new doom tracks that were already out but i hadn’t heard yet, and didn’t spoil the rest of mm food. mmmmmmm food. peace dude.
