KazaaLite still lets the software do whatever it wants.

I am surprised at you. What happen to your free market ideal?

The market has simply decided that distributing music media is no longer worthy of reward. Instead our dollars will go to support a vigorous internet, and various media with which to make our own recordings. The music industry is going the way of the gas station pump jocky. They just haven't admitted it yet.

Modonna and the Dixie Twits will simply have to decide whether they will accept a pay cut to merely several times the POTUS' salary, or simply quit the industry and flip burgers.

It is a healthy evolution. As the new distribution system gets stronger we will see 1000% improvement in the shear number of new artists that will get a chance to shine. When a media company expends its energy blocking access rather then promoting new ideas, it has certainly lost its way, and is no longer serving the public interests.

Let them die. That is how the free market is suppose to work.
