The recording industry is shooting themselves in the foot. Despite these law suits, the more tech savy web denizens will still find the means to continue file sharing and the sale of over priced, over hyped and often talentless CD's will continue to nose dive. Doesn't someone out there realize there is a large market for music that isn't rap, boy-bands or Brittany?

Perhaps the likely success of sites, like the new I-pod site where you can legally (I guess) download a single song for about $1, will be a wake up call.

That's always been possible. The recording industry just doesn't want it to be so siple that every dopey 90 IQ teenager can burn a CD easier than charging one to her dad's credit card at the mall.
