If you made music you would know that music downloads do not pay your bills, concerts do. Your record sales go to the publisher and the recording companies.
Don't forget that not only does a studio own their work, but their advance is used to pay for their own publishing costs -- most artists on major labels not only don't make any money, they technically owe them money and have no rights to their own work.
Meanwhile, some fat prick tells us how he needs more cash.
Internet has become a little more civilized?
Have you seen what those guys at 4chan do on a regular basis?
Lemme tell ya... consequences will NEVER be the same.

Interviewer missed a golden opportunity:
"What's it like being a total f**king douchebag to all of your customers?"

"They thought that slavery had been outlawed, but somehow musicians still had to work without pay when it came to radio."
This guy's a complete idiot.

"Why haven't you given any of the money recouped from levying war debt like fines on teenagers back to the artists?"
"If I touch you, will it make me shudder and wipe my hand on my jeans?"
"Would you rather allow a baby to die or accept this briefcase full of souls and money?"

"1st Interview w/ President of RIAA Since It Targeted ISPs"
For some reason this title makes me think I'll be reading an interview with Osama Bin Laden.

Since apparently playing music on an unapproved device is stealing the music I am going to start killing the industry with my mind:
"Just a small town girl..."
