the RIAA also has nothing to do with artists rights. the RIAA is looking out for labels not artists.
The Pirate Bay has nothing to do with artists' rights. The Pirate Bay is about spreading their sociopolitical idea that art and information should be shared freely. They don't care who's producing it, nor should they. It is not relevant.
TRENT REZNOR: I'll grant you that one, but the quote from him on the site runs pretty counter to everything else I've read from him in the past five years.
DISTURBED: CHOPPY VOCALS AND POINTLESS NU-METAL ANGER!
THE GRATEFUL DEAD: Jerry Garcia's been dead for a long time now.
LOGAN LYNN: Who?
RANDY BACHMAN: "Get off my lawn, you darned kids!"
LUPE FIASCO: Who?
LILLY ALLEN: I've only heard of her because the righteous bitch-slapping Dan Bull gave her...and he told her off far better than I ever could.
TAIO CRUZ: Who?
-----------
So there you have it. Straight from a confrontational dick with no love for copyright or those who worship it. These people (with a hesitant exception for Reznor) are not artists.

If it were a "fact" that the pirate bay makes 100% of "artists money," then no artist in the world would have a cent to their name, and the Pirate Bay would have every penny they ever earned.

There is nothing wrong with being an amateur, and there's nothing special about being a professional. Get over it, you entitled whiner.
