I don't care for this story as it could potentially cause harm to a site I enjoy. Give a digg to the counter story

If you feel as I do. Above is link to writer at DownloadSquad. I have no affiliation with any party, just enjoy Last.fm and feel this rumor could prove harmful.



So, you oppose all negative reporting that could potentially "cause harm to a site [you] enjoy"? I presume your attitude would change if they proved to be true? Well how are we going to know unless the story comes out and is investigated?

If last.fm gave the RIAA that information, they are toast. I think a very great number of people are interested in the truth coming out. Stock denials are utterly routine and mean nothing.

"Give a digg to the counter story"

Does "digging" things increase their truthiness, or something? Does the side of the story that gets more "diggs" get declared the winner?

God, strange world some people live in.
