Blame anything (Score 1)

It doesn't occur to the RIAA that the CD sales could be down because the major artists...how do you say...suck? The extremely bland music that spews out of most any radio speaker only promotes what you can get in any mall, and probably in two different locations. The fact that it's all owned by a handful of corporations doesn't help things either.

Start tracking MP3 downloads to see if the world is really eager to have the latest Puff Daddy "creation" versus some other artist who the record company fails to promote/puts on a soundtrack/saturates the culture with.
