Art -

No music publisher that has to pay artists for their work is going to allow free downloads, no matter how many Diamond Rio units flood the market

I wouldn't rule this out. Some enterprising music publisher mught well come up with a plan to break an artiste this way or alternatively as part of an ad campaign. The artiste would still get paid one way or the other either by gaining market acceptance or from an ad campaign.

This technonlogy of MP3 allied with SNDKs goodiews are going to create whole new openings that haven't been tried yet. The music business and movies to a certain extent are very creative wit new technology. Thats the history of EP's LP's Mr Palinsky v. Mr Sarnoff.

Best regards,
