Just another example of the music buying community getting ripped off by the antitrust violating big labels. The bigs and a few artists have the RIAA, the brick & mortar retailers have the NARM, the non-platinum artists have BMI and other organizations. Where is representation for the music listener in the courts? Where is our seat at these trials, settlement talks and FTC antitrust investigations? How about washing the 480mm the FTC says consumer's over paid for CD's since 1996 against the 400,000 plus Beam-It user's unlimited usage of CD's they already paid for and stored on MP3.com? Additionally, any person that has purchased a CD in the PAST should be able to Beam proof of ownership to its MSP of CHOICE and get lifetime free access anytime anywhere provided by anyone. What else could be done with the 480mm? We all know that this amount is VERY conservative. It is time that there is representation for the listener. Lets sue the big labels as a way to back-off them off this Diamond/MPPP/Napster lawsuit detractor cycle. Coming soon to protect the listeners is http://www.480MillionReturned2CDbuyers.org Let the FULL music wars begin!
