Bono attacks ISPs over filesharing - Comments

The movie industry has already had to deal with piracy, Bono. It was called the VCR and it was going to kill cinema. See what happened there? Now even a rock star can get his film script made and have thousands of multiplexes worldwide to screen it in. Remember when cinema meant one movie per week at your local fleapit? Piracy saved cinema, Bono. The people who've really been ripping off musicians are the record companies with their restrictive and often illegal contracts. Then they ripped off their own customers by charging much more for CDs than vinyl albums, even though they were cheaper to produce. Ahh, Bono, you would've benefitted directly from that price increase in the 80s, right? Can we have our money back?
