Re: Just Die

I think the moment of opportunity passed...

People want cheap and easy access to music and when the music companies failed to deliver, they turned to file sharing.

So instead of asking people to go from a $14 - $20 CD to a $10 - $15 DRM Free MP3 album, you are now asking them to go from FREE to a a $15 DRM free MP3 album and most people will balk at it.

Convenience will be the deciding factor - if the music companies make the albums cheaper and easy to buy, then they will sway more people away from piracy but giving us what we already asked for, and found, is not going to be enough at this point.

Amazon has an mp3 store thats cheap and drm free (89 cents for some songs and I just bought an album for $8.99). I like to just search, click and download so that's what I'll be using from now on. If I can't find it there then I won't buy it.
