LostInSpace Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Heh, before it was CD sales now it's satellite radio. I guess they are so underwhelmed with nothing better to do with their time and money. They should just concentrate on making CD's the price vinyl albums use to be. If I remember correctly, anywhere from $6-$8 depending on where you bought it and how new it was. On the CD note here's on guys take on the RIAA push for better copy protection on music Cd's: ars technica: While the RIAA may indeed be seeking to justify its deeply unpopular use of CD copy protection techniques, I have my own suspicions about the real reason for the RIAA's recent return to its media-bashing roots. The organization surely must know that these CD copy protection efforts are doomed to fail in the market, and in fact as I've argued before they're probably driving frustrated users to online services (sanctioned and unsanctioned) where they can get less-restricted electronic copies of music. It seems possible that the RIAA has renewed its anti-CD-R rhetoric in order to lay the groundwork for a campaign to enact a Canadian-style tax on recordable media. The RIAA can argue that they've tried copy protection and that it just doesn't work, so a recordable media tax is necessary to make up for sales lost to CD-R-based "piracy."
