Music and information both want to be free (Score 1)

Honestly why they worry so much about the whole cd is beyond me. Granted Napster might bring back the whole cd to you for download. But given the fact that most people don't have broadband access keeps them from downloading the whole cd. Should broadband access become a very real concept in everyhome there will be more then the record companies complaining. Usually you download the hit tracks off the cd and pass over the rest. Or you download a hit off a cd you can't find in your area. This is getting the band exposer, at the cost of them not getting paid for the tune. Much the same way someone hearing a tune on the radio or tv and recording it does. Maybe the record company should embrace the mp3 and start selling mp3 cds. Course what would u play them on? The CD it's self could have a lock file on it for you to copy to a computer to allow the play of the MP3's on it. Still no matter HOW you look at it, there WILL be someone getting the music for free somehow.
