Poll shows only 29% of kids worry about illegal downloads!

In a survey of 8-18 year old's who download music over the Internet there is a trend that the RIAA is not going to like. I can understand the dilemma that the kids face. When deciding if they are going to spend $19.95 on a album or have a few bucks to spend else where we all know they are going to download the music for free over the Internet.

Let's face it they are the digital generation and unless the music industry does something to keep them happy like all you can eat subscription services their industry is finished. [infomatics]

Good riddance to the RIAA. They went for nearly a decade selling 10 cent plastic discs for 17 or 18 dollars..... why? because they could rape the customers as much as they wanted to, because there was no alternative. Well, now there is, and the greedy RIAA monopolists are getting their just desserts.

It's their own damn fault for taking advantage of the consumers for so long. I will lose absolutely ZERO sleep over their demise.

Well seriously i bet the only reason those 29% cared was becasue if their parents found out it was illegal they'd get an ass-whoopin'!

if RIAA want to do somethign about it then they should act fast and realsie that it's pointless in charging 18-129bucks a pop for a piece of shit music that wil be out of fasion next week... this is where disposable cd's might be useful, sell disposable cd's that work for a few weeks and i bet it'd be loved if the price was lower.
