Hi: You didn't really, really just type this did you? Ooooh, I can't resist
.. . . . . .. These folks are the ones that truly, truly believe RIAA and
Valenti, when they are told that:
1] The Internet will never have "quality content" until Hollywood is
protected by the DMCA and CBDTPA
2] That where the Internet has been highly successful for providing
information, the General Public "demands more".
3] When RIAA, Michael Whozit from Mitsubishi says, "internet rebroadcast is
not a "fair use" issue for consumers, these folks all jump up, sing AMEN, and
applaud.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
Thanks,
Tom
