Well done BPI !!!
The Fat Cat gets its mouse.
The UK has hes been over priced for its music since the days of eddison's gramaphone. Now that technology gives the individual equal powers to the people they go to the courts with their fat wallets.

Before the rest of you cry loss of revenue and copywright infringment. Ask your self if you couldn't download all your music to your Ipod would you actually buy it... Well I for one would not.
And that is the point!! So how much have they really lost.
When CDs come closer to a realistic price then they can complain. They cost pennies to produce, hell they even give them away with news papers.
