>What ever happened to e-music? Didn't you think Yhoo would buy it?

The whole online music industry is in the crapper. The music that is out there is free, and it's so bad even the existing big 5 labels are quaking in their boots. When the bandwidth exists for programs like Napster to start handling DVDs, there's gonna be a hell of a lot of copyright legislation..

Then what do you do about rogue countries like russia or the cayman islands? What if they set up servers and start distributing for 1 dollar all the latest blockbuster movies?

It'll be interesting, that much is sure. It's going to be increasingly harder to make a profit, that's clear too..
