Quotes:  Our govt. can shut down youtube overnight, but they don't feel the need to shut down websites of pirated music.

There was a time when people used to go to cinema halls and watch the same film three or four times just to memorize the film songs they loved so much; now the films or the soundtracks don't have that appeal anymore.
