Bad example, though.

Considering EMI was selling King Crimson songs on iTunes, even though
they didn't have rights to them.... nor did they pay King Crimson any
of the royalties, even though EMI was making 69c/track... just what is
the difference between, say, iTunes and allofmp3?

(FWIW, for King Crimson music, check out dgmlive.com where you can buy
many King Crimson works as FLAC or MP3.. and the artists even get the
money.)
