You should, it'd be a useful degree.

There's such a level of consumer entitlement in society that it makes me sick and i don't quite yet know what to make of it.

I didn't say that I had stopped buying music because of YouTube, I said I stopped buying music because of greedy record companies such as Warner doing dumb things such as this. As a direct result of Warner's (I assume they demanded they do it) decision, I feel that YouTube will be a lot less enjoyable.

Sizeable, quit joking around. We all know that no one buys music anymore.

lol. Youtube sold to google for over a billion dollars, US. Almost 2, so people stood up all of a sudden and said... fuck man we can get some of that. Sue the bastards for copyright. Even thought they had that shit up on the website for 3 years. Make em pay royalties and legal fees.

To top that off google is paying some corporations to leave them alone.
