Dear Bill,

You voice a very valid opinion, but consumers cannot have their cake and eat it. I would agree that the price of CDs are high, but that has always been the way that markets have developed: people see they they can be rewarded for their enterprise, and consumers reap the benefit of choice.

Consumers deserve a better deal than to be ripped off by the big music studios, but artists also deserve better than to be ripped off by consumers.

Free MP3 could kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

SDMI, and specifically the Wave model of it, restores the balance. Artists could bring their wares to market directly, bypassing the censorial layer of Big Business.

Cheers

Paul.
