Re:Let the RIAA piss off their customers (Score 2)

Napster has not been viewed, at least that I have read, as a revenue mining mechanism. I use a napster-like service, but never download music that I would purchase. CDs still provide better sound quality, which is not important for those "remember that" songs that most people I know tend to download. If this is the case for most people, the RIAA might want to reconcider the offer as it is pure "gravy" or revenue that they would not ear anyway. As for singles, maybe people are tierd of the format. Afterall, radio seems to overplay any cut released on a single format at a much faster pace today. I am also of the opnion that music offerigs in the last few years have become less desirable. Maybe the RIAA shold look into original artists instead of chasing the next copy-band?
