RIAA: CDs With Or Without Crack? 2008-02-20 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 15 Comments | A sixty-minute video, alleged to be a leaked training video instructing DAs to aggressively pursue music pirates, has begun circulating online.
The video, apparently produced by the RIAA in conjunction with the National District Attorneys Association, is intended to persuade prosecutors of the pressing need to prosecute music pirates at all levels, linking the practice to more dangerous crimes such as gun-running and drug-dealing.
In one scene, featured in the two-minute clip at Gizmodo.com, panellist Frank Walters of the RIAA provides a compelling account of the link between CDs and crack. Stranger than fiction, one might say.
"When you buy a CD, would you like it with or without—the with is enclosing a piece of crack or whatever the case may be," says Walters.

| | | somebody tell me what the fuck that says. i'm not understanding what the fuck this is talking about. utter nonsense.
| | | I really can't believe they just made those jumps in accusations. Large stashes of guns, drugs, and etc? Are you serious? How the hell does P2P fit in that, if that is the major source of illegal sharing.
| | | huh
| | | wtf who sells bootleg CDs of major releases.
I doubt this is really what the description says it is.
| | | i hate this
HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT
| | | so what exactly is this video for? who is trained by whom? and whom was this video directed to?
...anyway...are they really serious? crack with cd's? machine guns found? wtf.....
| | | could it be that they mistake crack with the game.exe switch crack.exe??
like in a school: here you go, UT2004.

| | | Oh, I see what they're getting at. It's gotta work, since terrorists like music too, right? Right.
| | | Wasn't there an absolutely ridiculous joke article where someone from the RIAA drew a connection between music pirating and drugs, etc.? Now they're actually doing that?
...
| | | The first two lines of this news article sounds like some al qaeda type shit.
| | | :lol: lmao
the biggest piece of bullshit I have ever read in my entire life. These people look like such jackasses when they do this stupid stuff. I could never take these people seriously if I met them anywhere.
| | | Well at least this doesn't make me a communist.
