You can't just get up on a soapbox and call people's attention and then clear your throat and look vacant. Is that really the best you have to offer on the topic of infringement and Grooveshark?

Your resemblance to a non-tard is close. Your ability to follow the conversation is nearly adequate. regards. Stan,

The point of GS is to share music, not give attribution to everyone who shares a song. The bigger issue concerns the copyright holder---who rightfully deserves to get paid. I can't even believe your only contribution to this debate is that the person who uploaded the song should get recognition. The jackass who uploaded the song probably free-loaded it off an illegal network anyway. I can't stand Internet losers like you who put up these pathetic blogs claiming to cover "internet music technology since ~2002" and all you do is spout out random thoughts and opinions you most likely stole in the first place. And to top it off you get the whole argument wrong. Get a life and quit clogging up the intertubes with this garbage. -Stan Rodgers Lucas,

Either Grooveshark owes attribution to link sources or they don't, and they simply don't. This is an unfair comment.

I can't find that. Also, if somebody uploads a song, do you give attribution to the uploader? I can't find that.
