don't you love when you go to the movies now, when you pay 10 dollars and you have to watch 5 minutes of television commercials before the previews? well how about when you download a song from a soft drink company and before you hear your song you have to listen to the company song like the Pepsi theme song.... you watch it will happen. |

I look at it this way. As you know the RIAA has been trying to kill streaming radio for years. Their argument has always been while music played on broadcast radio is promotional, by their twisted logic, doing so the net is not. and thus they want more then their pound of flesh out of the net broadcasters. With companies like Pepsi recognizing the promotional value of the internet the RIAA's argument will just not hold water.
Folks we are seeing the marginalization of the RIAA. As larger players start to see the promotional value of the Internet the RIAA will be forced into the time tested business model of broadcast radio for internet radio. While on the musical front musicians in turn with the finally recognized promotional value of the net will find they no longer need to sign their creative lives away to a big studio, but instead they can market their creations anyway they want. Let's just sit back and watch the RIAA go down the tubes they are hated by their musical talent, and their customers.  -- I love Irish Terriers, Low Brass, and the sound of a 1950 Johnson Viking 1 tranmitter on the air for the first time in 30 years. |
