Price-Fixing Settlement Checks in the Mail

toastyman writes "Remember the Music Industry $67m settlement from way back in 2002? Seven months later than planned, your $13.86 check is finally on its way. In addition to the cash settlement, the defendants in the suit are also giving 5.6 million CD's to educational programs."

    But has any major label released anything halfway decent in the last ten years?

    Sure. Zero 7 and Kinobe (Zomba) kick ass. I think Tantric is pretty good too. There's Moby, Fatboy Slim, Massive Attack/Tricky, Joe Satriani, ... Jet's single is kinda cool. There's pleny of decent suff. It's just mostly drowned out by the crap that gets over-marketed to ensure high sales figures.

    Lawyers were Clinton's second-largest contributor too!
