A Simple Truth
In the past few months I have read hundreds of articles, reports, essays, etc, on the decline of record sales over the past 2 years and I have yet to see anyone say that just maybe, the pissing off of millions of paying customers by killing Napster had something to do with this downward spirial in sales.
another report

The music industry is trying to "promote" their way into our wallets, but the fact is, that in the past 2 years there hasnt been very many good new signed/major recording artists and their havent been that many decent cd's made by anyone. make better music and the cd sales might go up.

Well, I have to admit, we stopped buying CD's when I discovered I could download them and simply make my own for just pennies. We have over 100 CD's that were store bought, "pre computer days".
It's my fault. I've sent the music industry into a downward spiral

The RIAA needs to look around and see the world - people won't buy crappy music or entire albums for just one song on it for their outrageously high prices.
Why can't they just use their super-duper Overpeer technology or whatever to see what songs get downloaded the most and sell those songs in original form at low-priced, high-quality CDs in record shops? Now wouldn't that be a good idea? |
