C.B.Leslie@serpentroots I just wish piracy wasn't so effective at killing record industry profits. I could really go for some new music right now.
Nazo@cbleslie @serpentroots Is this tongue-in-cheek? I can't tell...
Just in case, it needs to be said aloud anyway: piracy never even put the tiniest dent in their profit margins. And they just suck solely on their own merits with no one but themselves and their own practices and choices to blame. All they ever cared about was maximizing profits, so every single choice -- including what sort of music to make and how to make it -- has been made by calculating what would produce maximum profits.
Sorry, it just really had to be said just in case someone somewhere takes that seriously.
@nazokiyoubinbou @serpentroots yes. Same with how the war on drugs was so effective you can't get drugs anymore.
@cbleslie @serpentroots Ok, just had to be sure.
There legit are people who will defend these companies with absolute seriousness, believing every word of it.
@nazokiyoubinbou @serpentroots sorry. Didn't mean to gaslight your.
