| The bottom line The bottom line is that music never has and never will be a stable product. You can not put restrictions on how a sound is distributed, as it is something that can be recreated at little or no cost in way too many ways. Music is NOT something you can hold on to or stick on a shelf. These companies will continue fighting a futile battle to control rights to distribution forever but they will never be able to stop it. Hell, they shouldn't even be able to try.
Record companies and associated businesses: Give it up.
Stop trying to control something that is naturally free. If you don't want people to copy the music that you've stuck on a CD and signed a contract over, then face it: you're in the wrong business. Quit whining and filing lawsuits and for Christ sake, you have enough money, quit trying to place limits on the rest of us so that you can make even more.
Just my two cents...
