(no subject)

Because I know a bunch of you find this stuff interesting, I present a bunch of articles from the Sun vis a vis downloading. They can all be found at the Canoe.ca/crossroads site:

• Six Steps to Fix the Music Biz
  
• Is the CD Dead?
  
• The Torrent Revolution has my favourite quote
  

  It's a simple document. It takes up just a few kilobytes on a server. It downloads to your computer in a matter of seconds. And many believe it is helping destroy the music industry.

  Duh Duh Duhhhhhh!
  
• The Top Five Excuses for downloading
  
• Canada is a pirate haven
  
• Independant music stores suffering. It's interesting that their main example is a chain record store.
  
• Anti-Piracy tactics futile. They even talk about how the Sun's music reviewer downloads music. For reviews only, wink wink.
