I agree with you all. Here’s more “info”, if you can call it that:

I would rather listen to blues rock than hip hop! I just never could stand that kind of music. I am not saying that others don’t, it just never realted to me like what they now call “classic rock” did.

If blues rock like SRV (Stevie Ray Vaughan) was to come into mainstream again, I would DEFINATELY listen to that. But now all I see is a bunch of “pre-packaged” artists! (why do I think “meats” instead when I hear that phrase?)

I hope this year that something turns around in music, as music has not been for me, what it was in the past.

I posted to my own BLOG why I believe these two issues are separate.

Kind of inevitable that the article (Reuters/Billboard after all) didn’t mention AllOfMp3. Amazon should of course simply copy AllOfMp3, pricing, encoding choice, lack of DRM, the whole shebang. If it wasn’t for the fact I’d like AllOfMp3 to stick around, maybe they should just buy them. You have to wonder what the RIAA would make of that!

If nothing else, AllOfMp3 has shown that it *is* possible to compete with free.

So what do you think? When mainstream artists are available from an authorised reseller without DRM will the Apple FanBois still claim Fairplay is not Apple’s fault and it was forced on them by the evil record labels?
