Why are these greedy old men at the RIAA so stupid.

Beats me.

I bought more CD's during Napster days than the previous 10 years combined. Napster (and some others) provided a chance to sample artists and songs, and I found a lot of new stuff that I'd not otherwise have heard.

Since the demise of Napster and then Aimster, I'm back to buying nothing.

Good work, RIAA. Brilliant.

I like the model of "live365" internet radio. You get to hear lots of material you normally wouldnt hear and they have a direct link to purchase the cd if you like it.

And they claim music sales are down. After the antics of the RIAA, I haven't heard of a rise in music sales. These guys, (the RIAA), are unable to adapt. Therefore, they will become extinct. Just not soon enough IMO.
