No matter how you slice it the music industry is
burning us more than we're burning their music.
Music is timeless and will be endlessly resold
with the newest technology available.That means in
an average 80 year lifespan someone might have to
buy the same music what? 10..15 times or more.
If you bought the Beatles Sgt.pepper album on
vinyl in '67,and then on 8 track in '77,and then
on cassette in '87,and then on CD in '97,and then
from Apple now,and then who knows how many times
into the future before it becomes public domain...
Well I'd say the music industry has enough cash
from you and future generations to start giving it
away cheap.Maybe pricing should reflect the vintage
status of the music. 99 cents for the newest Eminem track
and I don't know...20 cents for a beatles track?
signed
the devil's advocate.
