RIAA claims victory

Of course we all know this is just total bull****, but what do you think about this?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

They have won, in a sense; there's no music worth pirating on the radio anymore.

No, they're correct.  File downloading is taking off, and P2P is dying.  Maybe it's because the idiots using P2P only have access to ****ty quality and improperly ripped tracks, and they're only just now realizing that.  Hell, even Napster is better than the best Kazaa has to offer.  I pay my $1.85 per album, and I honestly dont mind that expense, knowing that my copy is both legit and top quality.

I hereby pronounce you "full of it".

Heck, if you want the HD versions of many shows, the only way to get them is via P2P.

Am I the only one who maintains a decent (>1) ratio on bit torrent, without having to seed afterwards?
