The Null Device

Napster complains about RIAA blacklists containing files that the companies don't actually own. Pretty much to be expected; did anyone think that an industry run by coke-snorting, whoremongering control freaks who pimp artists into the poorhouse as they line their own pockets wouldn't try to pull a fast one and sneak some other tracks onto the blacklist, just in case? It's a matter of covering your ass; naked greed is a sensible business practice in the recording racket business model, just like prosecuting people for copying albums that have been deleted for 10 years is.
