Like the RIAA, only older and slightly less annoying


Via BoingBoing: No license is granted.... The restrictions placed on records released in the early 1900s. "This record is leased solely for the purpose of producing sound directly from the record and for no other purpose..." Selling records for less than $1 is killing the music industry!

dude...$1 circa 1900 is like, 23 bucks today! Those bastards! They're way overcharging for this new fangled technology. Why, you can get a perfectly good wax cone for a nickel!

Ahh, I remember the days when you could get a wax cone for a nickel. No wait, no I don't, and also, I don't know what that means. But I agree with you.

If only I had invested $1 in 1906...
