Beastie Boys crippled my PC!
My soulmate wanted to rip the CD to put on his Archos Jukebox, since he is not using CD’s anymore but still buys them to be legal and to have the full version.
Since I have put in the CD I can’t run my company invoice system anymore, can’t do anything at all with that cdrom drive, can’t even play a game. Every time I put in the CD it cannot be recognized by my system.

Hillary Rosen, the CEO of the RIAA (Records Industry Association of America) wants ISP’s and telecommunication companies to pay a fee for giving customers access to music swapping software.
This way the RIAA wants to recoup all lost sales and money because of music piracy. Next to that Hillary mentioned on the Midem music conference that more CD’s should be protected against piracy and licensing restrictions and download services by subscription should also be taken care about; She urged this to the major record labels like BMG, Sony music, Warner music, EMI and Universal.
