But if you want to legally own the hit music that you sing along to every day in your car, you still need to return to the music companies. While it's bad for the music company to cop an arrogant attitude, it's equally bad for the kids who are stealing music to not understand that they are stealing music. I think it's less about the music companies and more about the fact that if people can get away with something, they will. This doesn't have to turn into a war between the music industry and its consumers. We have to do our best to protect the interests we've made a commitment to, and consumers need to understand that entertainment comes with a price.
Music is still, by any vehicle, the best entertainment value.
This is just the latest apocalyptic event. This is the nature of our business and the nature of the people in our business. There's a lot of hysteria. It's going to force us to think about something that, for a long time, we haven't been too comfortable thinking about.
