do your bit for p2p....

i have seen this for a while but decided to post it now.

The last week in April 2005 - 24th up until and including 30th - show them how much money we are spending on their products by denying them our hard earned income. Do not go to the movies; do not buy any entertainment products during that week.

in theory if everyone did that it would mean the industry would take a huge hit in profits.

its a consumer revolt, if you dont buy the products companys get the hint, it wont change a thing though.

a dip in profits means the price goes up. Not very helpful to those who legally buy stuff instead of nicking it over the net.

And while we're at it I think we should all boycott petrol stations, supermarkets, electrical stores, book shops, computer outlets, telephone companies, cable providers and dentists 'cause they all charge too much.

Oh, and we should all stop going to work 'cause we don't get paid enough.

That'll show 'em!!

Let's make it 'world communism week' and not spend a penny! (Did I really mean that?). That'll show 'them'.

P2P is stealing music no matter how you try to get out of it. The consumers have no right to revolt if they are the ones in the wrong.

You are saying that if the record companys dont let you steal their songs you wont buy their products? I am sure they wont be to bothered as that market doesnt pay for they items anyway
