What I really don't get why the recordcompanies hasn't yet made a good online musicstore, that sells music cheap and with an unlimited selection. Probably because it means less money to them, and it will be easier for indy labels to get a marked
. Instead they are fighting priacy with courtcases and invading the privacy of people. They need to see that for the mainstream user CDs will be obsolete. I not sure wether I hope they see there mistake before they go bankrupt, or not
I do however agree that there will be a marked for owning CDs just like with LPs, but it will be margial, but for collectors nothing can beat the feeling of having a new record in your shelf
And as a side comment its better for the peguins that music is sold over the web. If you look at energy consumption the hole idea of printing CDs is ridiculus. Save the peguins! Download music today :p
