If the internet ends, They will end CD-R's and just let the professionals make the CD's even though they will copy protect them like DVD movies. Everyone next year after the internet shut down will be dumping the ipods since there is no internet access. And the economy will get much worse than it is now due to the lack of online shopping revenue. And we will be doing things in recording music such as recording music from the FM radio on a cassette tape and also dubbing cassettes. We will see CD players being less produced cause of the stinking ass copyright laws and CD-R's will be discontinued and even mp3 players. Also I would have to take my G1 back cause it will not have access to the internet, since it runs only on the internet. Also VHS will probably come back too since VHS is hard to copy than a DVD. Also the ipod will die and will be put away in the drawers of many Americans homes due to the lack of firmware updates, and software updates.

I see that the RIAA does not like CD-R's and they want to discontinue selling them. But they do like cassette tapes and records they want that low quality sound for the consumer. If the internet shuts down, most broadcasting will be going back to microwave uplinks and downlinks and some businesses will be getting their old analog equipment back.such as long play tape carteriges. SCA-FM will be back on the FM radio reducing the modulation by 10% again by placing Muzak back through the background
music speakers in some places. Satellite feeds need the internet, so without that there is no way to
redistribute it faster. SD Cards will be programmed for digital cameras only per one PC, if the PC
still works without updates from Windows. That's another thing ending the internet will compromise
security due to bugs and non fixes. The PC will break with the internet cause of the corrupted
software such as the Vista Operating System. The computer will not work properly without a
unlimited internet connection cause of all of the firewalls that the ISP would put up. How can
software get onto the computer???

We need to stop these internet laws completely cause if the internet shuts down, there will be less
data flow and traffic will come to a halt and our computers will only be Word Processors . And like I said, how is the computer suppose to get its updates? Email, well if the internet shuts down, then we might just go back to breaking out the typewriter or dot matrix printer to type a letter to our congressmen and just hope it makes it there by snail mail. Also many government agencies will not have the internet
to communicate or even hospitals to send patient information. I guess they will have to use private
satellite networking and microwave links like they did back in teh 80's.

Our phones that we rely well they won't work even the GPS firmware updates will not be able to be be downloaded due to the lack of internet connection. So the GPS will be out of sync due to buggy software. Also without your internet connection your computers clock WILL BE OUT OF SYNC!

Have you ever worked offline? Sounds fun? Doesn't it? NO!! Loss of connection with your family
friends, and colleagues and people you knew and used to work with. Wake up and save the internet and keep it that way, unless you want your laptop and PC to turn into word processors. Since the CD-R will be gone we will be coming back to floppy disks just to save a long letter of problems in society. Even though the government will not access it since its on a floppy and its offline. Lets not be an offline
community here.
