I tried to remain true to myself for a very long time but after some initial contacts with Mr. Shepherd from the London office and the money they offered I could no longer reject the offer. I’m therefor announcing that the RIAA has purchased my blog, my domain and my expertise which will now be turned in favor of digital rights management against those unwilling customers who just can’t see what is good for them.

I already started editing all existing anti-drm, anti-RIAA and anti-Everything posts here at Ghacks to please my new king. I managed to convince them to send me a truckload of records that I always wanted to listen to. It is indeed very nice of them to send me 3-4 copies of every records because I told them that I needed to listen to the music on my computer, my mp3 player and my car radio. I did not want to break DRM to be able to do so and they fully understood that.

See, they are nice guys. I may not talk about the price that they paid for making me their slave but hej, it is more than I would ever earn in my whole life. That is a lots of icecream !

Service Announcement:

The new Elton John CD is available for only $16.99 at your local CD retailer. Go buy a copy now !

There are absolutely no ill effects for Ghacks. I was even allowed to add those nice announcements to all of my posts. I’m sure everyone will profit from those.

Well, I’m off again. Have to listen to all those new shiny records I got. See ya.
