    RIAA Bans Telling Friends About Songs

    November 30, 2005 | Issue 41•48
    LOS ANGELES—The Recording Industry Association of America announced Tuesday that it will be taking legal action against anyone discovered telling friends, acquaintances, or associates about new songs, artists, or albums. "We are merely exercising our right to defend our intellectual properties from unauthorized peer-to-peer notification of the existence of copyrighted material," a press release signed by RIAA anti-piracy director Brad Buckles read. "We will aggressively prosecute those individuals who attempt to pirate our property by generating 'buzz' about any proprietary music, movies, or software, or enjoy same in the company of anyone other than themselves." RIAA attorneys said they were also looking into the legality of word-of-mouth "favorites-sharing" sites, such as coffee shops, universities, and living rooms.

                          I think the article "Babies Are Stupid" and the one about North Dakota having a lot of nukes are the best ones I've read.

                            if this is real, which i cant possibly believe it is, how long do you think the music/movie industry will allow that to go on for? movies make their bread and butter from referrals by people who've seen the movie.
