well i am gonna make a general music site, cause im very bored and have tons of time on my hands.... anyway I was thinking of doing a Punk, Rock and Hip-hop/rap site. Than once it gets a bit bigger maybe add some more genres, but I need ideas on what i should put in the site. Right now I only have news and a section called CHECK THIS OUT which will play a 30 second bit of a new song for ppl to hear the new stuff thats out there. Anyway i am just planning this, any input would be helpful!

or you just host the site out of Australia... nothing ever happens in Australia... thats where KaZaa is based. Though I heard that courts refused to sue all the P2P sharing apps (thats why recording industries are trying to sue individual people they catch now)

How to Waste Money

Sue 60 million Americans for distribution of unpurchased merchandise. (P2P)

It's not going to happen. The record industry is losing money from P2P software, suing everyone does what to the money they have?

the minimum amount they can sue for is $750 USD per song... and up to $150,000....

Even at $750, I dont see anything happening. If anything the person will just buy all the CDs in between trials and would legally own all his MP3s Laughing

I wouldn't do that, I'd fight it because the labels have no case.

Actually i was thinking of doing that...well sort of. For like the popular bands/artists I would make a bio up, but for the un-popular artists just re word the bios.....

and also let the music industry sue me... They ain't gonna get what they want, cause I dont got that kind of cash!

Anyway anybody have some ideas/suggestions... cause if i cant think of any I will have to give up my dreams <insert crying emotion> <insert emotion of me pretending not to cry> but dont worry i wont cry, cause real men don't anyway
