"Michael Jackson has slammed a proposed US bill which could see music file traders jailed for downloading just one illegal copy.

In a statement, the superstar said: "I am speechless about the idea of putting music fans in jail for downloading music. It is wrong to illegally download, but the answer cannot be jail.

"Here in America we create new opportunities out of adversity, not punitive laws, and we should look to new technologies like Apple's new Music Store for solutions.

"This way, innovation continues to be the hallmark of America. It is the fans that drive the success of the music business.""

This is a good read and is found here (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/31872.html).

This will be good for us.

but, since it's..... jako........ doing the commentary.......we have to make light of it.........but, support from jako could even be a ploy, to re-establish his image with the masses.......not likely, and, should, maybe. even backfire in this situation............regardless, if it was, ...genuine outreach by a pop icon, before he smelled of fish, would be significant support for an alternative solution.
