KimDotCom Steps Up! F U Mr. President!

I'm not questioning the fact that there's a problem with industry lobbying efforts.

What I'm questioning is whether Kim Dotcom is a good source of information and the best poster-boy to fight the MPAA/RIAA.

I wanted to get some balanced perspective on the case, and I couldn't get any anywhere.

He has as much skin in the game as anyone. If he wants to make himself the poster boy he is damn well entitled. Do you think the RIAA/MPAA's a good source for information? Both sides are going to lie and cheat so might as well get the guy with the most to loose to do it. Besides who else is willing to fight to the death for justice?

If you want a balanced perspective just Assume anything said by either side is BS. Sift through the shit and you will find the truth somewhere in the middle.
 


This idea of Metallica or some rock n’ roll singer being rich, that’s not necessarily going to happen anymore. Because, as we enter into a new age, maybe art will be free. Maybe the students are right. They should be able to download music and movies. I’m going to be shot for saying this. But who said art has to cost money? And therefore, who says artists have to make money?

- Francis Ford Coppola
Francis Ford Coppola is in a better position than anyone I can think of to comment on artists' entitlement to profit.

Also, Kim and Woz look ridiculous enough individually, did they really have to pose in a pic together? lol

giant heads

If only RMS would stop hating long enough to get in that pic too.

Kim Dot Com is a hero. Obama and his justice department were simply calling in favors to raise money for Obama's reelection.
