Back when 4chan was a small cesspool we took down the recording industry, we can do it again with Spotify and all the streaming services.
We beat them once we will do it again.

its the easiest boycott ever. you can listen to their music while still boycotting them.
run the archive team warrior if you can. it helps them out with archiving the internet.
Run the what?
maybe they mean this?
Thanks! I’ve been looking for something to run on my desktop when I’m not using it.
Guess I'll increase my monthly donation and boycott the recording industry. Time for torrents.
Anyone else not being allowed to sign this?
That's why we pay an extra on any Hardware that could possibly be used to pirate it, so that such lawsuits aren't neccessary, right? Right?
Thats only in some countries iirc.
There's plenty of music available to listen to, entire centuries of music and more hours of music you can possibly listen to. There's no need to listen and give money to majors.
Fuck that just Rrr the fuckers
I will get change.org tattooed on my nut sack if anyone can show me proof of a change.org petition changing anything.
It's the internet activist's most powerful weapon... A TEXT FILE
The only thing it changes is the amount of spam you receive after they sell off your info. The same goes for VoteBlue.
Alone, a petition doesn't have any effect. But it's a tool to publicize a cause, and a way to create a movement. Some had a strong effect.
Please me know if you get a picture of a tattooed ball sack, I have a kink
I dont believe you do have this kink you speak of. And you can easily just share where the rest of us can find this kink if you continue to uphold this statement with any intent to convince people that you do in fact have this job
(Just having some fun)
Historically, they have had impact however with this administration....
UMG, Capitol Records, Concord Bicycle Assets, CMGI Recorded Music Assets, Sony Music Entertainment, and Arista Music
Are named from the petition, fuck these corporate ghouls
Capitalism is dead, and the labels were part of the poison. This is a death rattle for recording companies. Parasites
fuck capatalists man, will destroy any good in the world, with their short sited fodder for the profit machine.
Oh, its a change.org.
I'll sign it, but it feels slightly useless.
Signed it, wether it helps or not worth the effort
link to actual lawsuit/claims?
Don't yall just love opening up the Way back machine page and loading up your playlist and using that instead of Spotify?
Fucking idiots.
I disagree with the big labels, preservation is important and they are not selling this music anyways (at least not as scratchy old 78 recordings) but... I do stream a lot from the archive and I am not alone. There are apps for a ton of live music, all with bands that agreed to it.
But There is even a 78 app for listening to the 78's.
I won't use Spotify though.
m3u text based playlists kick ass. Everything else... Meh.
yeah I was wondering what has music to do with the wayback machine?
The Internet Archive does more than just the Wayback Machine.
They have a project called Great78, to archive every 78 RPM record, since they are deteriorating.
The lawsuits from the music firms are taking issue with that, depsite no-one using it as a replacement for buying or streaming music. The "Damages" are bullshit.
Funding the lawsuit, and potentially losing it does threaten the Wayback Machine, and the archive as a whole.
Buy direct from artists. Otherwise...
