I say what I always say, corporations are little fascist states propped up by the US government.

"If these corporations have nothing to offer the consumer, let them fail."

Meh. Apple, Microsoft, and other corporations who build the devices will tell them to go fuck themselves because it would increase the cost to them, and the government (ie the FCC) won't want the extra workload of certifying all of these devices.

tldr: it won't happen

i really dont care. if i ever own a smartphone, it would be cool to be able to listen to npr

RIAA = illegal cartel oligopoly for which it's president Hilary Rosen as well as member record label CEO's belong on prison on racketeering and a whole fuckload of other charges. Instead Congress gives it their blessing and allows the RIAA to operate outside of the law.

Looked him up. I saw:

"economic advisor to U.S. President Ronald Reagan."

I decided to ignore everything he has ever said.

>>2045523

The economy was great in the 80's. Reagan help put an end to the Jimmy Carter recession.

This is good - it will ensure that all americans will be able to receive emergency broadcasts in the case of an emergency.

>>2045631

He also ensured that we would be ruled by super-corporations for the rest of United States history. Reagan destroyed this country.

>>2045591
Rosen, you say? I wonder what religion that guy is.

She's a woman, a raging cunt, and thinks Americans should be forced to buy RIAA music (and RIAA music only) by any means necessary.

And I've seen her pic. I doubt she's a jew.

I remember when Satellite radio first came out, a radio DJ had this long rant about how it would kill the business, and nobody should buy it. I went home and ordered my subscription and never turned back.

>>2045654
basically this

radio is still the only way you can hope to reach everybody in the event of an emergency.

>>2045684
Lol, Rosen is most definitely a jew.

I am for them concentrating on anything but music piracy, meaning any distraction whatsoever, so I can continue to amass my music collection for as long as I can.

The RIAA and NAB in reality does not want to compete, so they'll try to stay alive as much as possible by forcing an unnecessary product onto consumers.

Even if they do succeed, you'll still get the same 50 songs playing over and over again.

my phone currently has an FM radio transmitter in it and I never even use it. I am sure its the same for most. Radio is a dying if not dead breed. Deal with it.

Hilary Rosen, 42, calls herself just a "nice Jewish girl from New Jersey,"

http://www.usatoday.com/life/music/2001-05-02-hilary-rosen.htm

She's also a feminist lesbian

The RIAA was created to specifically protect jewish interests. By pirating, you're rebeling against Jewish control of media.

So.... why would it matter if there's a radio in my phone? It's not like I would use it.

She's also the leader of one of the largest criminal cartels in America and a criminal.

She engages in price-fixing of music to prevent record labels from under-cutting (hence uniform CD prices when you go shopping in a store), she bullies retailers into only carrying RIAA music, she gets the courts to conduct illegal trials against suspected pirates by putting an IP number on trial then serving it's owner with the sentence after the trial and demands for obscene amounts of money well above any actual losses, and those fucking trials are less about actual justice than punishing people so harshly to serve as examples.

Nice girl my ass. She's fucking Hitler of the music industry.

>>2045799
>uses fraud and deceit to make money
Yep, jew status confirmed

>>2045757
>>2045799
...And she gets more pussy than you.

>>2045778

And all the record labels are rap labels owned by niggers like Russell Simmons as well as labels owned by giant multi-media corporations like Time-Warner, Disney, Sony, and Virgin; they're hardly owned by Jews.

>>2045818
Wait - you're implying jews don't own the big music companies? lol

>>2045818
>Russell Simmons

LOL, know who was co-founder of def jam records? Rick Rubin. Rubin is a jew.

>>2045836
Rubin is also currently the co-president.
