		<description><![CDATA[If you listen to the RIAA, and only the RIAA, one might think that music is dying, that piracy is rampant and that everybody is out to get them. Well…the last may be true, because they are not exactly loved. This might be because they are a heavy handed organization that is aggressive in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today the United States Trade Representative released its annual ‘Special 301’ report. This is a report that basically says how bad other countries are and how they are being mean to the United States. What makes the whole ‘Special 301’ report pretty meaningless is that for years the USTR has listened only to the industries [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Piracy ruins the economy! You’ve heard it from the RIAA, the MPAA, Senators, Congressmen and the news media. Industry funded studies claiming piracy impact numbers of  thousands of jobs and billions of dollars lost every year.
