I ...Music Media has changed so much over the years. I remember Mom having the 8 track player in the car and listening to Neil Sedaka and the Beatles. The recording industry is now in court trying to say that we, as consumers, do not even have the right to download music from OUR cd's we buy onto our computers for our own use, as tp put on our IPODS. I do not think that will fly. I think they are pushing the cause a bit far now. Just like when VHS players came out and the movie industry went to court in the 80's, it was ruled as long as the consumer was taping for their own use and not recieving any monetary value, than it was lawful. That is when they started scrambling VHS tapes so you could not get a good recording. I don't think they can do that with music, so we will see what evolves from this. I mean, why buy an IPOD if you cannot put your own music on it. I think it would hurt album sales all together.Stevie Marie https://www.blogger.com/profile/17536213794906781496noreply@blogger.com
