They are trying to keep from changing with the times. The royalties on the music are pennies compared to the money they make from duplicating, distributing, and selling physical products.

While that doesn't give people the right to rip them off, bands that try to sell their music directly for download are snubbed by their own labels and pressured into physical distribution only makes you wonder who is blurring the line between right and wrong?

I'm not arguing with you any more about this because we agree completely - we're just still typing for some stupid reason.

Well, you might be drunk - that might be the reason. Your typing is a little slurred.

Anyway, you one quote, 'They are trying to keep from changing with the times,' hits it right on the head. If they eventually change, they'll live to fight another day. If not, then this will be their death rattle - no matter how vigorously they defend their right to not change.
