Only companies will solve this,
Steve Jobs handled it well, he invented iTunes. He made artists sell their music for 99 cents. ($0.99). This basically stopped pirating because it was much easier to pay the 99 cents than pirate.
We need something similar to this that will stop SOPA, but also keep pirating at bay. |

| The government already is a bully ever since the NDAA got past. If the SOPA gets passed... I won't be on the internet... Lets just say I don't want to get caught in between Anonymous and the Gov't... |

Better to end SOPA now.
Then elect Ron Paul to repeal NDAA, and restore this nation back to its values of freedom, justice, under one republican constitution |

I prefer being able to listen to my music on various mediums rather than having to pay for it, and then having to use iTunes to play it. Piracy isn't difficult if you know how to use a search engine. |

| If Ron Paul gets in, I might regain faith in the government. |

Its only 99 cents. Steve Jobs FORCED the artists to sell them there.
People enjoyed music more, and it was more easy to obtain than go to a store and get a disk. |

Piracy is easier and more convenient than using iTunes. |

| Well if the SOPA gets passed most forums will be shut down. This one probably being one of the first. |

| The way to beat piracy is by providing a better service than the pirate. |
