I Just Got A Check From The Music Industry!

Remember that whole thing with the Antitrust Litigation lawsuit against the music industry, where you could sign up on a website and get a check reimbursing you for paying too much for retail CDs?

Well, I signed up sometime last year, and I just got my check this weekend. $13.86, baby. Aww yeah.

Did anyone else do this, and did you get yer check?

Will it change your life? All that money? biggrin

Even so, it's good that you got something out of it.

Yes, this windfall has changed my life completely. In fact, I'm having my newly acquired personal assistant type this message out right now, as I dictate it from the massage table where I'm getting a lovely rubdown while I wait for the kitchen staff to prepare my lunch banquet.

See how rich I am? And all because I spent too much money on CDs! Music truly IS the gift that keeps on giving!!!

Sadly, $13.86 won't cut it at many retailers here in the U.S. unless you go to one of those used/trader places. Then you might be able to get two!!
Hey, hit up a garage sale!! Then you can really clean up!! smile
