Whois Back?????
That's right kiddies. I'm back once again with another incarnation of TWTBNS. I promise that this will be updated weekly or more than weekly. But, I'd like to start some kind of weekly feature which awards excellence in numerous categories.
This week, I'd like to give props to the RIAA. Yes, the RIAA. The Recording Industry Association of America deserves a huge hug because they (as they've claimed) have "contained" illegal song-sharing. By issuing cease-and-desist orders to such sites as BearShare, Grokster, and WinMX they've successfully shut down the use of those sites for sharing songs. Good for them, if they would've done that 5 or 6 years ago when people were actually using those programs, it might have meant something. But unfortunately for them the song-sharing pirates have moved onto bigger and better programs for downloading illegal music. Now, when they shut down bit-torrent altogether, along with soulseek and limewire, that might actually mean something. Until that happens, I'd like to award the RIAA with our award of the week.
