This is exactly the reason I lurk for a month or so before posting. Invariably,
people end up going at each other because the newbie isn't quite in tune
with everyone on the list. It was not my intention to cause such infighting.
I do not support piracy. I support musicians getting what they deserve.
I do not support the RIAA. I also don't wish to continue a flame war on
a list where I am new.
