    A few major reasons why music is traded online:
    1. Music that we would not have bought anyway can be obtained.

    2. When you buy a CD, you are not directly supporting the artist. You are supporting all the fee's that went into that nice little package - Which doesn't include the music.

    3. Artist's make money from contracts and touring. A miniscule amount of money comes from CD purchases. Regardless to what some believe, for each CD purchased the band gets an AVERAGE of ONE dollar. Do not try and use the "look how many platinum rappers are out there!" argument, it is childish. The overall ratio of poor musicians to wealthy musicians is extremely lopsided - I dare you to guess which musicians there is more of.

    To show support for the artist you go see them live. That is where they make the most money.

    File sharing destroys the corrupted minds that sit behind desks and push out pop music. This is a revolution - You primitive minded people can argue it all you want, we will not allow it to stop.

  4. Comment - Sony PSP Sales Surpass $150 Million

    "In a survey conducted at the end of March across 150 retail locations, American Technology Research found that only one-third of the locations had sold out. Of the remaining stores, 1
    5 had less than three units in stock."

    Here's the real deal:
    33.3% of 150 = 49.95 (round to 50)(http://www.google.com/se...=off&q=33%25+of+150)
    150 - 50 = 100
    100 - 15 = 85

    50 of the 150 stores sold out. this left 100 stores that weren't sold out. that means 85 stores had more then 3 units still available. nice spin.

    This is a very smart move for AOL; I feel it'll pay off big.

    They're definately getting back on the ball - Good job AOL.
