The Music Industry shoots itself in the foot again!
You knew this was going to happen sooner or later.
Here’s what I don’t get - A few of the labels are actually lowering the price of first-run CDs, Sony is releasing more and more stuff on hybrid SACD (which kicks total ass, by the way) at the old CD prices, and the online places are selling the same album, without a CD, without liner notes, without any extras, at lower audio quality, and with restrictions on what you can do with the music besides.
They’ve had a measure of success between the jack-booted thug stylings of the RIAA lawsuits, some educational measures, and decent on-line services at killing off the file-sharing networks of pirated music. And now, after they got on the digital distribution bandwagon 5 years after it left, they want to kill the goose after it’s laid a brass egg?
I’ll never understand some industries.
