Right, and you see their real colors there.  They don't want to preserve 
their rights, they just want to make more money off less product.

That really doesn't bother me.  There's very little in the way of music 
that's coming out these days I would even consider to be called music. :)

Of course, that's a lie, as I do want my daughter to have reasonable 
choices in music.  Still, even for her, there's very little out there 
that is worth purchasing.  Either it's just plain junk, or the lyrics 
are something she's NOT going to hear.  Yeah, I know, she can get it 
from friends and such.  That's okay, because I confiscated her mp3 
player the other day to review the songs on it.  Fortunately, I did not 
have to delete any and/or have a discussion with her regarding the 
choice of tunes there. :)  Don't get me wrong, she's a good kid, but 
even good kids make bad decisions every now and then.  It's my 
responsibility to spy on her. :) (music, chat, websites...)  She already 
knows that when she starts driving, there will be an active gps in the 
car...
