Why is it dumb people like you decide to flame me whenever I try to post something?! You lack logical motivation to attack me... Fine, Ill humor you. Ive been into the scene for 3 years. If youll notice, I said "to my knowledge" which means mVs was the biggest group I had herd of being busted. Besides, I get all my scene info here on RLSLOG, so it is very possible that I had not heard of them. And for the record, I dont really care about music releases. Any dummy with the right programs can rip a CD... And on a side note since the wealth of your intelligence and logic is unbelievably insignificant, "education" was not the term you were looking for...though it does satisfy your context with the least amount of relevance possible for such a statement. So primitive... @44

If Madona can't afford to buy more children because she's not hitting her sales figures we should not care. Nor should we care when copyright holders are denied their copyright holdings. That is not theft, it's a market dictating worth. Musicians art is for public consumption, a good artist will always make an adequate living from their talented work.

Well, you have to be extra careful or stupid to do any "crimes" in US cause even spitting on road gives you death penalty if it causes a carcrash :p But yep yep, they can bust single or small groups forever, it definitely wont change the fact as all have seen since start. As guy above me says, there's much more concerning stuff that slacks resources, but its the money that rules all in this business afterall.

My sympathy does go out to him. Dont be so quick to say that they deserve it. It is very hard to cover all your bases; something is always left behind...
