Since it's obviously OK for big record labels to get together as an industry and collude,
I think it's clearly time for the technology industry to do the same. Apple, Google, Amazon,
and let's say Microsoft... each of them could decide to pick a label and just go buy it with
the spare cash they have lying around, then grant each other full licensing rights.
Sure, it's still big, evil corporations, but at least it's not big, evil corporations
who are still living in 1985.]
All sarcasm aside, that would be amazing if that actually happened.

all laughs aside... this copyright stuff is getting way out of line with the intention of the law.... so don't worry they are going to change the law here in the US soon to reflect the way they* think it should have intended... sadface
