Wrecking The Music Business – Plenty Of Blame To Go Around

So now the music industry is going to go after people who download big quantities of music. “The RIAA says somewhere out there is a person who downloaded 600 songs in a single day. That’s about 40 full CDs, retail value: $720. He or she is the one the RIAA is looking for – to make an example of them and put fans on notice that downloading is a prosecutable crime. The day of reckoning nears. Consumers must face the fact that they can’t get music for free forever. And the industry needs to understand that it never would have lost all those customers in the first place had it not been so consumed with greed.”
