I agree that recording music is work, however, think about iTunes. They charge a buck a song. Eventually, that adds up! Recording artists, singers, songwriters, etc, they're all like, "I'm struggling soooo hard because everybody is getting their music from limewire!" Oh please. Let's cut the crap and take a look at what's really going on. Yes, people get their music from limewire and other networks. No, you aren't struggling. You live in a gazillion dollar mansion, wear thousand dollar clothes, have more pairs of shoes that Africa will ever see, and you're complaining because some sixteen year old who works at Burger King and makes three bucks an hour is downloading your song? "It's hurting me so much!" Uh-huh. Right after you say that you go get into your Ferrari and drive off into the sunset wearing 600 dollar jeans. Okay, and now you're gonna spring this on my argument, how not all recording artists live in that kind of lifestyle. Some live just like normal people. Yeah, but then those artists aren't very good then, are they? You're not on iTunes or anything else if you live normally. You just aren't. Everybody will have a moral decision to make. You can steal the music or you can pay them for it. Take in mind though that they live like nobody else, have concerts where tickets are 50+ dollars a pop, sell CD's to those who don't have iPods and live in million dollar houses. Really, do you think people like Chris Brown, Rihanna, Fall Out Boy and Taking Back Sunday are suffering that much? Have a good day, ~A
The Triumph proved to be one of the better looking and performing pre-paid handsets we'd had the pleasure of holding in our sweaty mitts, but we had one major hangup: the name.
