SOPA

I honestly don't know where I stand on the whole issue.
Yes I do believe that people and their intelligent property should be protected, but the whole piracy issue is a product of the industry we live in.

Break it down to what people are really bitching about: videos, music, links, free information from wikipedia or google.

Yes, I do understand that this is an infringement on civil liberties... but the only reason the general public is "pirating" is because everything costs too damn much.... and it feels so damn good to get the things we want immediately.

No more do you hear about people waiting patiently for new albums or movies... instead they just wait for "leaks".  WHY?????

BECAUSE IT SHOULDN'T COST $25 TO SEE SOME GAY VAMPIRES PRANCING AROUND IN GLITTER!

Look at bands like Radiohead or Tool.  They create manufacture and sell their own CREATIVE, BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED products at a reasonable price that isn't greedy nor selfish.

Yes, stop SOPA... but instead of blocking info (google) why don't you put some of your trillions of dollars towards helping lower the cost to be ENTERTAINED!!!
