Mother Of 5 Takes On Big Music

Since the Big Four record label cartel started its sue 'em all marketing campaign, several victims have said they’d stand up to its RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America). So far, none of them has due, primarily, to their lack of financial and, hence, legal resources. But this may change with New York’s Patricia Santangelo.
It's clearly impossible for an ordinary person with ordinary resources to take on the multi-billion-dollar industry with its bottomless pockets and legions of highly paid lawyers. Not that this stops RIAA spinsters from implying thousands of people have been found ‘guilty’ of the crime of sharing music with each other, an assertion faithfully repeat by the mainstream media as though it comes from credible sources. And the time-honoured maxim Innocent until proven Guilty goes by the board.

But Patricia Santangelo plans to fight and backing her is the New York law firm of Beldock Levine & Hoffman with Ray Beckerman in the front ranks.

    I don't care who does it, so long as someone does. It's about time...nothing against artists, just against Record execs.

    the record labels are telling apple to increase the price of "hot" songs or they will pull the right for apple to dirtribute them. ****ing wow, top rated guys, you wonder why no one likes you?it's because of stunts like that. i hope this woman shoves a potato in the RIAA's tail pipe.

    Someone just needs to tell these guys whats up. Get a couple of my nitty gritty friends to go know on the RIAA's door, and I guarnatee you that they will shut the fock up. I just hate being told what I can and cant do.

    Guess thats where my anarchist side comes out in me.
