Re: Is anyone really suprised?
You know the funny thing is, the RIAA (or someone that works with them, we've had a few run-ins with the industry here in Nashville) even hit our Music Store forums, or at least someone from their network did.
They went into our Forums and posted a comment about how we "won't last long" among other things. If you want to read the whole thing go here (it's an old post, but sort of relevant to our topic here) »forums.ind-music.com/viewtopic.php?t=71
The funny thing is, we are not a part of the RIAA organization. Our artists retain control over their music. All we do is sell it. As of late we are doing Licensing deals and Touring, but my point is that things do NOT have to be done the way the RIAA says it does.

Re: Is anyone really suprised?
I really doubt that that post was a RIAA goon. More than likely it was an enemy of the site, or a troll. The sad thing is that there are many out there that think like that. That the RIAA business plan is the best out there. Thinking like that kills innovation. It's possible that the old model is still viable for the movie industry, but it's dead for music. It's just a matter of time before it is gone. Kinda like the buggy makers when the automobile was first introduced. They fought against ol' Henry. And lookwhere we are now.
