| Re: Content is paid for This situation is totally insane! What is the RIAA going to do next ? Are they going to start printing a time schedule on the back of copyrighted music CDs telling you the exact time and day when you can legally listen to the music CDs you just purchased ?
At this point the RIAA and the recording industry should simply store away and lock up all of their legally protected music recordings in a large vault where they are safe from supposedly "unauthorized recording". Unfortunately these ultra- protected recordings will become quickly forgotten and worthless to the next generation of listeners.
In the meantime people in the U.S and the world will move on to better, less expensive, and more easily accessible types of entertainment. The world will be enjoying other forms of media, music, video, computer games, and other media not associated with the RIAA and its music monopoly. The U.S. music industry's forty plus years of monopoly control over music in the United States is over. The problem is that the RIAA still doesn't comprehend that its biggest threat is not America's legal paying customers of XM Radio but instead the real danger to their profits is what they are facing with the emergence of a diverse and growing international digital media market. |
