one final word before the proverbial fork is stuck in the dead, dead horse-

What will bands do when they play live?  Say "we have T-shirts and MP3's for 
sale?"

I think not.  This is why MP3's will only be a secondary means or music 
DELIVERY, like radio, because they are not tangible.  You can't go see a 
band play and buy one.  Unless "they" make it some superconvenient drive 
system.  Either that, or "they" make live music obsolete.  Doubtful.  There 
are too many shredheads who listen to Biskit now who are going to want to 
amp it like them "when they grow up".

Maybe Napster should stick it to labels and become a label themselves that 
sells albums like other independents, splitting profits 50/50 after cost...

my other 2 cents.  Now I am broke.
