That's not fair - they totally love dead musicians who can no longer comment on the use of their tunes for profit, like in commercials.

- tonecluster 10y agoMaybe we can say that they love musicians, but love business even more? Sort of like the way many CEOs in S.V./S.F. love software developers but love business even more.
- bluejekyll 10y agoYou have the option to quit and find a better job somewhere else (pretty easily I might add). Musicians, once signed to a record company, are not so lucky.
- 6stringmerc 10y agoI've said that if the RIAA could get people to buy an actual piece of cow dung in the shape of a circle that cost them $2 to make, including owning the cow, and they could sell for $18, they'd get out of music and into the manure business. I think it's an apt analogy. The RIAA wants to make money. Music is the vessel. That's, well, kinda it.
