yeah, so I guess yesterday's post has been disappeared. I appreciate blogger deleting my whole goddamn post instead of sending me a note to just unlink the song.
thanks.

Well damn! Who knew the IFPI loved auto tune so much? I guess it has to since most the "artists" it's "protecting" use it, haha

those fucking censors really need to get a life and start making it less easy for people to download full albums instead of picking on those of us who actually promote music and encourage (successfully, every study shows) more people to purchase music legally.

yeah, sorry... preaching to the choir, I know

thanks for your support, tart! I can't even begin to count the number of times I've heard a song on a blog then went and bought the album.

Poor record industry. Wah, my heart bleeds for them.
