    Interesting fact about the RIAA:

    The RIAA is quoted as saying that since the onset of MP3 trading, RIAA revenue has dropped by 25%.

    Sounds pretty harsh.

    Until.

    You find out that, predicting a hard time ahead, the industry *axed* 20% of production voluntarily. So in essence MP3 trading had only a 5% impact on revenue, which was still in the busta-paddy-mack-billion range even after half of it was spent on coke.
