Read through PC Magazine. They always have updates about this fiasco and how the music industry is in termoil. It's only a matter of time before they die.
There are artists (and labels) that are sending out false files, with trojan horses, fake this or that, etc. Madonna did this and her site was attacked by serious hackers and her album sales slumped. It's pretty simple. Piss the people off and they'll retaliate. I will never buy an album of hers (not that I did, beyond the BMG freebies a decade ago) or any other group that does this. I hate Metallica for fighting Napster and would never pay for an album of theirs or a concert.
It's simple economics. Why they can't see this is beyond me. I guess it's cheaper to fight, and I guess I would too if it meant my lively hood, but it's all f*cked up, to say the least.
Death to the record labels, long live enterprising bands!
