Quote by: Dieval  To me, it seems to boil down to the fact
that you don't like(and/or don't have) money and
don't want anyone else to have any as well....
so, you accuse everyone else that has or is making
money of either being theives, bullies, or having a tyrannical
quest for world domination... |
Your first point is just an attack, and a simplistic one at that. My having or not having money is irrelevant, nor am I jealous of the RIAA (I actually view it as a despicable organization).
As for the serious discussion:
There is a crucial difference between merely possessing money and having intent. You've arrived at the conclusion that the RIAA's intent to maximize profit has no harmful effects, that it's purely benign.
But I do consider the RIAA tyrannical for the reasons mentioned, and they certainly do intend some form of domination.
