Just know that you are not alone when it comes to losing money in our modern times. The advancements in technology have put a dent in my wallet too! Let's see I have purchased 8-tracks, albums, cassettes, cds and online music. Not to mention every conceivable device, from 8-track players to computers, made to play all these mediums times 4 people times the number of increased storage capacity devices. Then on top of that I have purchased accessories to play my music in my car, ranging from FM transmitters to new car stereos. I have replaced albums/cds that were scratched and 8-tracks/cassettes that broke from too much use or bad players. I have purchased CD's for music that I previously bought in other formats. I have bought multiple copies of cds because you can't play one cd in two portable cd players for my kids. Then of course there is the actual expense of replacing those damaged mediums due to my so-called negligence. Then I am even more stupid and spend big $$$ going to concerts for my favorite artists. You want to cry BOO-HOO for the money you are losing, well what about ME???? WHY HAVEN'T YOU PROVIDED ME WITH A STABLE DEPENDABLE MEDIUM THAT IS WORTH MY INVESTMENT??? How come you have piggy backed your greed onto technology making me a slave to my addiction? I am an avid music fan. My collection ranges from nature sounds to today’s music. I have no problem with you being compensated for your work but where is the balance? When is it my turn to break even in the music game? These tactics are getting way out of hand!!! You are suing the very people who keep you employed. Once you prosecute everyone, how will you keep your job especially when all the fees you collected run out? You’re so busy going after individuals that you are not coming up with realistic solutions to the issues. I guess we will have to ban all recorded music. Then who wins? There has to be a compromise where everyone can win. If we all put our heads together, we just might find the solution. But whatever it is, it needs to be to the benefit of all parties concerned – from the artist to the consumer – because without us you wouldn’t be where you are today and without you we wouldn’t have a voice to express ourselves.

Also agree with PF. And to add on...

You could totally just do a query on the database, and all sorts of data could be available - like usernames, passwords, addresses, phone numbers... the list can go on and on.

I work for a web development company and when we learned(the hard way) how these things were done we kinda started to build upon that, thinking of everything under the sun we could do, and a few things were kinda scary.]]>Jan 22nd 2008 10:19PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/Jan 22nd 2008 11:11PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/Jan 27th 2008 9:11AMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/Jan 23rd 2008 3:19AMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/Jan 23rd 2008 4:07AMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/Jan 23rd 2008 4:48AMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://www.switched.com/2008/01/22/riaa-web-site-hacked/http://freeextras.blogspot.com/
