I'll make this real quick.

1. Go to 7 Eleven
2. Prepare a fountain drink but use a Slurpee cup. If you're feeling daring, double or triple cup it.
3. Pay for regular fountain drink (Should be $0.50 to $0.80)
4. Enjoy fountain drink.
5. Enjoy iTunes music download.

If you're always on the run and need something to quench your thirst you can either spend $1.29 for a 20oz. bottle of water or $0.80 for a 44oz. tall cup of ice water with a song attached. Good deal. It all ends on July 31st, and you have until August 31st to redeem the music.

If you do it every day, it's very possible to get 300 songs in that timespan, all legal.

iTunes sucks big sweaty balls, but it's legal. (Speaking of which, if you have a girl's actual birth minute and second, and you jack off behind a drape when she's 17, 11 months, 31 days, 23 hours and 59 seconds, and then as soon as the buzzer hits you blow a facial on her, is that illegal? Edit: What if she was born in California and you did it in New Jersey on Eastern time? Edit: What if she was born in New Jersey, but you did it in California but on New Jersey time?)

That would cost $1.00

300 songs the iTunes way: $300

300 songs the 7 Eleven way: From $150 to $240, plus you get a drink which you were going to buy anyway.

Yeah but eventually they'll find everyone who stole music and retroactively rape you. Imagine having to pay a $10,000 fine when you're trying to pay bills in ten years.

But as chunk points out: itunes is a rip off here, why should we pay (albeit only) £0.40 more than the US.

They got to keep traffic flowing. They don't need a ton of Brits with inferior Internet connections bogging it all down. :lol:

From a poll I saw most people are now on 1mbit here, which isn't exactly snails pace Internet.

I wish the big labels would set up a download service that if you buy a CD you get a code that lets you also download it at full quality...

Or maybe have a standard CD version: $10.99 and a DVD-A version $13.99 that also has MP4s or something on there.

Because they spent lots of money so people could enjoy listening to it by buying it from them.

"MAN! I bought this car, but I think I'm just going to steal gas."

That's what people like yourself and Smith should be doing, but your attitude and positions are out of synchronization completely. You should be stealing gas, and Chinese made electronics... Not American made music.

Who barely get anything from album sales anyway. Most of their money comes from touring, the tickets and merchandise sold.
