CatBus, Sorry, no points, not even a cute post. Law enforcement will always go for one party with 100,000 copies, instead of 10,000 with ten copies. Or, 10 with 10,000 copies. Ironically, internet piracy will also put the counterfeiters out of business. But we all know what the problem is. What percentage of people's music collections, and new music acquisitions, are purchased? This percentage is too low, and this is what needs to be fixed. -- Goodsounds ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Goodsounds's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14201 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53460 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
