[Revolting cat!]

Just desserts, the cat says! Greedy RIAA killed the product containing the basic unit of value in popular music, yes I mean the single, the customers find other ways to obtain it. Duh, Rock Around the Clock (or My Way for you Bloated Elvis fans) is not a double album!

killed the product containing the basic unit of value in popular music,

Good point. I remember the stack of 45s my brother had. When I got old enough to buy I created a stack of albums. Seems sites like Apple are simply returning to the days when you could get the song you wanted (but do they send a 'flip'side tune at the same time?- some of those were actually better than the cover. Now that would be cool).
