Is there anyone not employed by or receiving funds (e.g., campaign contributions) from the RIAA that supports their position?

One More Reason To Hate The Banking Industry
Today, I received a letter from Wachovia, my bank. In this letter, Wachovia claimed to be “committed to meeting [my] needs” by telling me how to handle my money. More specifically, they told me that I was exceeding the number of times I could transfer money from my savings account into my checking account. Furthermore, if I have the nerve to do what I want with my money once more, they will kick the money in my savings account into my checking account and shut down the savings account.
Oh no! I might lose the one percent or so of internet I earn on it! Oh no, I will have pissed off one more bank because they won’t let me control _my_ money! Oh no!
Looks like I will just accelerate my planned transition to do all of my banking with ING, which has a checking account that earns 4+ percent.
Headlining: Madness
While doing my normal Monday-night show search, I was shocked to see that Exit Clov–a cutesy, late-’90s sounding, two-singing-female-Asians local DC band–has the headlining slot for the April 11 Cloud Cult show. Huh?
Not a good way to be bringing incredible bands to DC, Black Cat!
