Perhaps it's time to put the final nail in the coffin and just stop buying music from entities that support groups like the RIAA, NMPA, their tactics, and their criminalization of the consumer.

The music industry is hemorrhaging money because the vast majority of the product they peddle is crap, and consumers just aren't willing to spend $20 for a CD that contains only one or two decent tracks. This, along with the pure unadulterated greed and failure to adapt to changing market and consumer demands.]]>Aug 25th 2009 8:43PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/08/25/music-publishers-on-the-offensive-against-lyric-sites/http://www.switched.com/2009/08/25/music-publishers-on-the-offensive-against-lyric-sites/
Until you stop being asshats, I will no longer support your terrorist organization. Please die.

The organization formed by your ashes will surely come to the logical conclusion, embracing digital distribution and accepting the fact that the majority of consumers will not buy an entire feces filled album for one track of gold. If even one in ten people believed your organization fought for the good of the artists, you wouldn't be in this pickle.]]>Aug 25th 2009 9:07PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/08/25/music-publishers-on-the-offensive-against-lyric-sites/http://www.switched.com/2009/08/25/music-publishers-on-the-offensive-against-lyric-sites/
Thus, to find the song information, I listen to a portion of the lyrics and then do a web search on the portion of the lyrics I remember. If there are several versions of a song, I go out to a music site and listen to the free previews of 20 or 30 seconds of each version until I hear the version I recognize, and then I go buy the CD.

If the lyrics were to no longer be available, I'd be unable to identify the songs and wouldn't be buying the music, but I guess that is ultimately what the RIAA and other groups want, to not sell music but to gripe and complain about how music sales are falling.]]>Aug 26th 2009 3:09PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/08/25/music-publishers-on-the-offensive-against-lyric-sites/http://www.switched.com/2009/08/25/music-publishers-on-the-offensive-against-lyric-sites/
