Recording industry goes for personal use

[quote swampy]
The best way to defeat the RIAA is just to quit buying music. That would be like cornering a mother bear . . . you may kill it in the end but you'll have a full-fledged blood-bath along the way.

[quote swampy]Yeah, the labeled artist will lose out, but the labels don't pay them much for CD sales anyway. They make their money on concert tickets and ancillary sales of tee shirts, programs and stuff. I've never heard that touring was profitable-- nI doubt this assertion.


[quote swampy]The first thing I do when I buy a CD is burn out an AIFF copy then reimport it back into iTunes as an MP3. I'll forsake the high bit rate for a lower one so that I save on disk (iPod space). You mean "rip", not "burn out"-- right?
Do you keep the AIF's on hand? If not, why not just import to your preferred format directly from CD?
