Well, I certainly do not plan on purchasing new CDs anymore after this. Any music I purchase will be used from individuals though Amazon.com or secondspin.com. 1) I get the CDs cheaper and 2) I circumvent the RIAA "machine" and NO money goes to them. Perhaps if more folks would stick to their guns they will see that is their heavy handed tactics that is the reason they are losing money, and (or) their failure to embrace new technologies in distribution.

I for one have hated for YEARS having to spend 15 dollars for 1 or two songs I would eventually end up listening to. The rest were always garbage anyway.
