Here's what I mean when I say that RIAA music is crap:

Out of the seven FREE songs that I've accumulated over the past few months (no, I don't drink much Pepsi), here are the songs I went with:

1. Becky Baeling - Heaven is a Place on Earth
2. Howard Shore (The Lord of the Rings, Return of the King soundtrack) - The White Tree
3. Shakira - Te Aviso, Te Anuncio (Tango)
4. Los Lobos - La Bamba
5. The Bangles - I Will Take Care of You
6. The Bangles - Manic Monday (Acoustic)
7. DJ Company - Forever Young

Note that three of these are remakes of old material, one of them is old material, one of them is a song from a film score, which leaves two songs that were made in the last year or two. One of them is by The Bangles, whose song I chose off of their new release (bet you didn't even know they had a new release, since the record companies don't give a damn). The other is Shakira, one of the very few "new" artists I like.

I mean, c'mon folks. If I'm having this much trouble finding good music for FREE, what do you expect when you charge me as much for a one hour album of songs as I pay for a two and a half hour DVD? Please stop insulting my intelligence.
