Mr Turkewitz, do you believe your own bs?
--->"The (WIPO) treaty was effectively negotiated a decade ago," said Neil Turkewitz, the Recording Industry Association of America's executive vice president for international issues, "and for a country like Korea, or Canada, to say now that they need to start examining these issues is crazy."


To make the claim that countries (more specifically the citizens within those countries) have no right to reevaluate their laws, agreements, or treaties is asinine. Are you going to tell us that the RIAA (or its members) won't break a contract or reevaluate an agreement if it is in the best interest of the RIAA to do so? Maybe the quote was out of context, but you might want to watch over your shoulder when the dead weight starts to get cut.
