A trust can be a band of companies and/or individuals that use their combined strength to manipulate free market business. Maybe they will use their combined political strength to manipulate government to indirectly manipulate the free market. Thus they endeavor to force out lower priced products so they can gouge the defenseless consumer with predatory "selling".
Yep. That sounds just like what we're seeing.
So, 20th Century Fox are jerks. I'll just stop going to their movies forever. Thanks for the info.
I wish there was a jerk list so I'd know who to boycott. I've stopped buying all copy-written music because most of them are jerks too.
I wish Google would half the rank of all copy-written content, so the fair minded content creators would float to the top.
So, if I understand this correctly, DMCA violation doesn't apply, so Google and UMG conspired to suppress MegaUpload's freedom of speech. Does the constitution apply in this case or is it only government suppression?
The solution is very simple. I've stopped buying music with a copyright. Occasionally, Google gives me some free music and, if interested, I'll play it. There are many of us and the number is growing. So the real trick is to get me interested in any music that not supplied by the radio in the car. The record company's greed has just turned me off completely. The hogs suck the artists and customer dry and then sue us for sharing a song of two. Music, the great communicator, the first social network, is almost dead; because of a few greedy gate keepers.
