Back to the RIAA again………
Another round of threatening letters is on its way to suspected music stealers at the University of Nebraska, with 19 more students accused of illegally downloading music.
Speaking about Illegal downloading………Â
Perry Farrell Former Jane’s Addiction frontman has spoken out at people
who download music online illegally – insisting they’re killing the music industry.
Farrell believes making internet file sharing legitimate is necessary to reverse the tide in lessening music sales.
He says:
“If you don’t care what happens to music, keep downloading. Look at music and look at the polar caps – they’re melting at the same rate. “If you hear garbage music on your radio station, you have only yourself to blame. If you don’t support the arts, that’s what you’re going to get. You’re going to get American Idol. It’s fine if you want to hear that, but I don’t. “
