 "Piracy is not a private offense," Hilary Rosen, president of the RIAA, said 
in a statement. "It hurts everyone by diminishing the incentive to invest in 
the creation of music. It should not, therefore, be viewed as a crime only 
against authors, performers, composers, musicians, record companies, 
distributors, wholesalers and retailers, but against each of us."

Hi:  I think she's exactly right with the words, but missed the appropriate 
place for stating thus.   The appropriate place would be a subcommittee 
hearing on the Music Industry's conviction and continued illegal practices of 
price-fixing, failure to pay artists' royalties, and continued presence on 
this earth.
Just a thought,
Tom
