sorry guys but some of the "facts" people are posting here are just completely wrong.

 

here's RIAA data:

http://76.74.24.142/81128FFD-028F-282E-1CE5-FDBF16A46388.pdf

 

and here's IFPI data:

http://www.ifpi.org/content/library/DMR2009.pdf (deals with digital piracy specifically)

 

and loss estimates for the US (just $12b not $70+b):

http://www.ipi.org/IPI%5CIPIPublications.nsf/PublicationLookupFullTextPDF/51CC65A1D4779E408625733E00529174/$File/SoundRecordingPiracy.pdf?OpenElement (includes all forms of piracy, including physical)

 

i'm in the middle of writing a research paper about the economics of filesharing, i guess i should post it in SSS when i'm done....

"..The survival of the music industry as we knew it is at stake here. And that is not "Doom and Gloom" just reality..."

 

 

 

To use a quaint American colloquialism:

The " music industry as we knew it" can

kiss my ass.

 

Never did anything for my career.

 

Any success I had was in spite of the

business, not because of it ......
