how to hit the riaa in thier pocket books the legal way,buy used

for those of you who wish to hit the riaa in thier pockets books
in the legal way simply buy used movies ad dvd's do not buy "NEW"
versions. thiers alot of places online as well as local stores such as Electronics Boutique sell used dvd's and also a good place is pawn shops .....

not to mention you can find some really good stuff dirt cheap

But then you hurt the people that actually support the artists. Granted, I download and NEVER buy, but still, you hurt the normal buyer.

Well, sometimes companies raise prices so they don't lose too much money.

why you think cd prices recently fell?
1 reason to reduce piracy, and becouse of piracy...

cd's comanies had though of rasing prices into the $30 per cd range
a spike in piracy and used sales now thier lowering thier prices insted of raseing them as planned!
