Music Fans, be afraid...

[MySummerJob]

Well I was surfing the web and came across this...

I really hope they don't do this. There are some songs I try to find/buy legally, but they either are lost and destroyed. So I have to download the lost songs I can't find physically. I really hope they don't pass this =/

I see Toronto...

I'm not worried then.

EDIT: Nevermind. Worried. FML.

Why would they do this? I don't think music sales are doing terrible, and neither are movie sales. If this happens, I will have no reason to live.

I am not from Canada, I am American. If this was Canadian only, do you think I would freak out? No, I wouldn't freak out. This impacts the whole planet.

Won't affect me. Won't affect the pirates for long, either. There will always be safe places on the net for them.

I hope so...

They are all greedy, that's why.

Isn't good enough that I buy a cd for a band that I enjoy? I guess not, I guess they just want more and more money. Money that they could use just to fill a swimming pool with cash and overflow it.

I know, downloading all those singles you heard on the radio, and those songs on Rock Band is sooo important.

"Go fudge yourself"--Chef

Some people only have music to live for (myself included), and if anything like this passes through, I would be very dissapointed with the world.

Music is an art, you shouldn't have to be instantly arrested even when you buy the album after, you can put pictures of art on your ipod, but are you going to be arrested? No. BS

Nobody said anything about being arrested.

Also, "I only have music to live for" is not an excuse to download illegally.

Plus I'm sure you have more than that, even if you don't feel that way right now.

Let me re-phrase that.

Music is what most people's lives revolve around (I certainly know teachers and friends who are like this), and with that fear of always being monitored like a little-sibling, it will be hard.

I know it isn't an excuse to download illegally, I just think this whole law is retarted, just as retarted as that law about how gays should be executed.
