Apple and Pepsi vs. RIAA

We already know how Apple’s flying circles just outside the RIAA‘s borders, seemingly taunting them.  People have speculated if it was intentional, or just conjecture.  Well, on February 1st, during the Superbowl, the issue will be out in the open.

Pepsi and Apple, as you know are giving away 1,000,000 free songs via the iTunes music store, as discussed in the MacExpo post.  Well, the ad that they are running features kids that were sued by the RIAA drinking Pepsi and singing “I fought the law (and the law won)”!  Genius.

My favorite is how the RIAA is “cool with it.” Of course to them, it’s putting a face on their successful victims, sending a message to would-be downloaders that they men business.  Soooo clueless.  I’d love for Pepsi to disclose what they paid the kids.  My bet is it’s whatever their settlement with the RIAA was.

This is just further evidence that the Illuminati are running the universe.
