    Digital drug peddlers target teens with iDoses

    Hmmm... soon it's going to be illegal to download and listen to music. *facepalm*

    I think this is more of a case of retards showing how retarded they are more than anything.

    We are so screwed if this is what our future generations look like.

    Are you saying you'd pay $200 for some music sounds because someone told you you'd get a "high" from it?

    That's the point.... That they are advertising these sounds as drugs or having druglike effects, when they don't. Legal drugs have to follow strict standards, these don't. Much like Homeopathy, there's no scientific basis for their claims, and they have no real effect, so they aren't regulated. The 'suckers' are the ones stupid enough to believe that they actually do something.

    LOL if you are dumb enough to believe everything you read and actually think listening to something is going to give you a drug like high then you deserve to get ripped off. Is it just me or are teenagers getting dumber and more gullible than they used to be?

    Red: I don't think so. I just think it's just much more heavily presented by the media now. Like most things, not a lot has changed in the last couuple of decades; more people are doing the same things because there are more people around to do them, but the same things are happening. It's like, a couple of decades ago you could go for a thrash, get caught drink driving, burnouts, donuts etc, get locked up and get out with a stern warning. Now you can still get away with drink driving 12 times without losing your licence permanently, but as for burnouts... Well, that's not far off a capitol offence now.

    The media has a way of exaggerating things to make it look like they are much more common than they are. I once heard/read a theory on why generalisations can be skewed like this. It was something along the lines of the brain searching immediately for an example of a situation. Say, 'terrorism', you immediately think of the twin towers. Because it is extremely easy for your brain to think of an example, it weights the likelihood of a repeat occurance as much higher than it actually is. I'm not sure if this theory was properly backed up by evidence, but I could see it happening.
