Hmm... Mostly European. Sounds to me like he's just had a few intense
conversations in
his recent travels and came out of them with what would essentially be
a good idea (for
American record buyers), but has gone way past the mark with his
boycott idea, and
spouted a load of ill-informed crap at the end of it. Frankly, I
wouldn't bother getting
too huffy about it. Dude's just stumbled onto some
flavour-of-the-month ideology and put
his foot in it. The basic idea is not such a bad one though (other
than the boycott).
