Hypocrisy

[kandrathe]

Hi,
Yep. And if the government leaves it alone, the market will take care of it. Not a big deal -- sorta like buggy whips.
Again, yep. I've got bunches of CDs and LPs that I bought for one or two pieces. In my pre-lazy days, I used to make tapes of stuff I enjoyed -- workout tapes, driving tapes, etc.

With the reduced cost of recording and the ability to (once again -- anyone else remember 45s?) sell 'by the song', artists can try more experimental things. If even a few people like it, they can at least break even.

It's win-win-win except for the leaches. What's not to like? B)

Too late.

The radio stations I'm working with have limits on the number of simultaneous stream connections to keep the costs of Internet Radio controllable. AM/FM waves fall on people like sunshine, so how would you know if someone were actually listening to your station. Well, they actually do have people that walk/drive around with frequency monitors to measure and estimate how many listeners are actually tuned to a particular station. That usually has less to do with the rates the music industry charges, and more to do with the rate that advertisers are charged.
