Here's a site that will tell you if the music you want to purchase is released by a member of the RIAA:

Moving this to Schmooze from Commentary. More appropriate.

I don't understand what this accomplishes. Are we suggesting people not buy music from successful artists? Every major record label is associated with the RIAA.

We have been here before. I guess I stick with what I have previously stated re the RIAA. I buy and will still buy the CDs I wanna buy. I know I am calling for a huge riot, but that has really not anything to do with the RIAA. I know the whole mess about the suing and the shit is bugging people. All this is stupid. But.. I view the actions of the downhill battle crew as far more stupid.

Is the RIAA bad because the org tries to protect the intellectual properties of its members?
