The music industry feels it is getting ripped off, and stolen from? Well thats exactly how i feel as a consumer. I am supposed to feel sympathetic to an industry that offers me a cd for $25 that has 2 good songs and 15 songs of crap? Bring the price down and sell by volume, the price of a cd hasnt come down in 20 years. The millionaire artists are upset because their intellectual property is being distributed out of there control. To bad,Then go on tour make your living from concerts, and work for a living, like everyone else. Free, or 12.50 a song do the math. Bring the price of the cd down to somthing reasonable like $5 and make it more appealing. The internet is not going away, and making criminals out of people who cant afford to buy a cd is not the answer. Industry changes all the time, it adapts or dies.. the music industrys free ride is over, they need to understand that, and move on.Ttake the millions youve effortlessly made off others talent, and be happy you were in on the scheme.

When all is said, if Microsoft produce the best product people will buy it and thats a good thing. If people have to buy their product because no one else can produce an alternative, only because interoperability protocols are kept secret, then thats a bad thing.
