Mark Cuban quotes Joni when blasting the major labels' vistory over
Napster.  Here are his essential statements:

"Rather than taking the easy road by offering those 40 million plus
people the option of buying virus free, guaranteed quality and
multi-format choices of hassle free downloaded music at realistic
prices, they take probably what will go down in history as the stupidest
business move every made, and shut the doors on the largest congregation
of music buyers in the history of the world.

"With Napster gone, the cumulative total that the labels will spend
trying to recreate their own personal crapsters will exceed a billion
dollars easily and get absolutely no results.

"They paved paradise and put up a parking lot. "
