That was as ******** then as it is now.

Today: 'Digital music is killing the industry'........

This is what you call a troll. Digital music isn't killing the industry.


Oh yes it is, wait and see.



The industry itself, with it's bizarre ideas on copyright control, is
doing the damage here. Inserting watermarks or other signals is
perfectly possible to do on vinyl or analogue tape - it's just a recent
phenomenon.


Yes, as a result of 'digitising' music. (Kinda shot themselves in the foot
with it....)


I think it's rather sad for you to use this rather serious issue for all
music listeners as a personal soapbox.


Get real. Try to avoid the personal abuse of the more seasoned 'vinyl
bashers' round here - doesn't make 'em look too bright.....


The truth is that almost all
music is distributed digitally, and there is no way to obtain most
modern musical works outside of CD or DVD. Given that, can you explain
the alternatives ?


Yup, buy more vinyl - the MI will be absolutely bloody relieved to sell it
to you - see earlier remark about taping.
