That business with napster did surprise me when the record companies, instead of seeing what a golden oppurtunity had just appeared for them, decided to try and kill it as much as they could. Anyway, if an album's worth buying, i'll buy it. 'nuff said. Maybe some artists are worried they'll stop being able to sell albums if enough people think their music is shit.

I think we need to make sure that the words and tactics of the MPAA/RIAA in similar circumstances are well published, so that people know how seriously to take them.
