Six Giant Music Retailers Will Try Online Sales Together

Posted by timothy on Monday January 27, 2003 @03:02AM from the smaller-warehouses dept.

PingXao writes "The New York Times is reporting that several music retailers are banding together to test online sales. Sad to see the article's author flat-out claim that '... a proliferation of free music-swapping services on the Internet has led to a decline in CD sales.' The retailers are starting to get a clue but still have a long way to go as evidenced by 'Recording companies make the music...' and 'We are in the customer relationship business.'"

the editors and readers have a pretty distorted view of what really is a right in this world.
