that cons is such a bull
you have 2 kind of people the one that will buy cds and such and the ones who don't because they think hey britney is already rich.
Plus also lets not forget how Sony, Phillips etc, are promoting their mp3, cdwriters, dvdwriters etc etc tools.
mp3 is something meant to happen and one solid proof is the companies that making all the tools for it, so people can enjoy mp3 better and easier.
whatever you want or are going to do to oppose mp3 and music piracy, it won't change , because like i said there are 2 kind of people, the ones who buy and the ones who won't or refuse to buy for their own reasons. |

| here is a question...i know the music industy is losing money but there is a whoooooole bunch of companies making money...i mean look how popular the ipod is and the mp3 players..if it wasnt for downloading mp3's there wont be need for ipods..shouldnt the music industy bother them too..or the blank cd's and cd writers...all those are making money out of us downloading music...dont see the music company bothering them..they should give the industy a cut and stop bothering us.. |
