The days of RIAA power are numbered (Score 1)

Right now, yeah, the U.S. labels are successfully coercing their signees to keep MP3s off web sites. But I notice that in India they don't care. How long will it be before U.S. labels start being completely ignored? After all, MP3 publicity is great for small bands, and small bands are where the newest sound comes from. I think that someday my radio will be Sonique running on my computer, in tandem with a search engine, and if that means RIAA contributors don't get heard except via MP3 on servers in India, or wherever else that they don't care about copyrights, that's fine by me. I'll support an open system over a closed one, every day of the week.
