		<description>Sheer leftist lunacy. 

Who would have thought that Reznor would get worked up over this. With songs like Closer, and Head Like a Hole, he should find it slightly humerous that his music delivered a sonic wall of sound to people, who if they had the chance would smash his musical instruments and cut his throat. Not much of a rebel, is he.

Morello is a left wing kook, always has been and always will. I couldn&#039;t stand any RATM music. Johnny Cash was a tax evader. REM are a bunch of overblown windbags.

People have to start boycotting these musicians, actors and other politically correct clowns. They will stop this nonsense when they lose their toys, get evicted from their mansions and have to live like every one else. Don&#039;t patronize the anti American zealots. Let them sing for quarters on the street.

Guess I&#039;m gonna have to burn more of my music. 

These leftist artists, athletes and actors, whether they know it or not, are having a Taliban like effect on my leisure time.</description>

		<description>If these so-called &quot;musicians&quot; (They&#039;re so horrible that I can&#039;t even properly call them &quot;musicians&quot;) can sue for private, non-commercial use, then forget using the music to scare the cats off your porch, they can sue people for using the music in a party. A legal action for this would open the door to some unfair and nasty (and unnecessary) lawsuits, and I hope any judge with a right mind would dismiss the case. It would give too much power to musicians.</description>

		<description>Personally, I think playing the &quot;meow meow meow song&quot; was a bit over-the-top extreme.

&lt;center&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;344&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/LTunhRVyREU&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowFullScreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowscriptaccess&quot; value=&quot;always&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/LTunhRVyREU&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; allowscriptaccess=&quot;always&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;true&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;344&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/center&gt;

Playing this one would have been a lot more effective and humane (considering no one could last for very long hearing this):

&lt;center&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;344&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/R3TKMKbifgQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowFullScreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowscriptaccess&quot; value=&quot;always&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/R3TKMKbifgQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; allowscriptaccess=&quot;always&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;true&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;344&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/center&gt;


Even liberals wouldn&#039;t last for long to this version:

		<description>The idea an &quot;artist&quot; could sue someone for the way they use their product in a private, non-commercial way,  is actually kinda frightening.  Think about it. Let&#039;s say you&#039;re the neighborhood Lothario who uses Bonnie Raitt albums to seduce and then  abandon  dozens of women.  Using this wacky theory, Raitt, angered her music was used in such a chauvinistic manner, could sue the womanizer. Or, if you used Rosanne Cash recordings to scare cats off your back porch, then animal lover Cash could sue you for doing it.</description>

		<description>I find it hilarious that a musician is admitting that making someone listen to his music constitues &quot;crimes against humanity&quot;!!</description>

		<description>Gotta chime in here -- slight OT but in same vein -- most of the background music played in grocery stores, drug stores, even sporting goods stores and hardware stores is so bad that I am convenced it is on purpose to keep the shoppers on edge (subliminally) to keep moving and make more spur of the moment purchases - most is crap music - bad rythems - horrid vocals - etc etc -- a looong waaay from the original &quot;elevator music&quot; back in the 60&#039;s and 70&#039;s that was almost totally instrumental and not intrusive -- the current idea is to constantly attack the senses to disorient and sabatoge judgement capability -- SAME with the &#039;sound bite&#039; news media and all the last several campaigns where most of what was heard was sound bites and talking points - over and over - 

Another variation on this is the load bar music intended to make people practically have to yell into each others ears and keep the thirst up along with all the salty free snakes -- popcorn anyone?

Enough on this --</description>

		<description>That little douche morello is a self described communist and an open hater of America. His music is a crime against humanity. I say let him spend some time in a cell with the terrorists and we&#039;ll see what happens. 
Trent reznor isn&#039;t much better. His best music is clearly behind him. Interesting how it happened at the same time his BDS came to a head.</description>
