In other news, The music industry is trying again to get as much money from everybody as possible. Here's the boiled down version of their latest scheme.

Every ISP will charge an additional $5 from each customer. This money will go to ofset the money lost by people pirating music.

Yeah. you read that right. Everybody will be charged a $5 surcharge from their ISP, whether or not you have ever pirated music.

Read all the poop in this Wired article

I was talking to a buddy about this, and his response was " well, if they're going to start charging me, and assuming I pirate music, then why should I even bother buying everything on iTunes music store like I do now? I'll just start pirating shit now, for the first time in my life. Treat me like a criminal, punish me like one, and why the fuck shouldn't i act like one, then?"
