Sell music, not BS

With all the BS about the money the recoding industry is losing because of people downloading music on the Internet it surprises me that CD sales have dropped at a rate that is easily offset by the increase in sales, much less profits, from download sales.  Maybe we should do as the recording industry once suggested and eliminate all forms of downloadable music. That 10% increase of sales is somehow detrimental to their profits.  What they haven’t seemed to realize is the fact that the market has changed.  It really doesn’t matter anymore whether or not the industry wants to accept the change.  The change has happened. Adapt or die. As consumers, we don’t care.  Apple, a company whose marketing strategy is suspect at best (with less than 10% of their primary market), schooled the recording industry on how to sell music.  If I was in marketing at a major record company, I would be embarrassed.  A company in a different field smacked your lame ass upside the head and made more money doing so than you did getting your ass kicked. Get a fucking clue and go back to your core business of selling music. Americans don’t want to hear about billionaires losing money to twelve year olds and old ladies. Adapt or die.  Intelligent Design has no credibility in science, it has less power in the marketplace. Adapt, or die.  The marketplace will welcome anyone who adheres to this creed. If you choose to ignore these facts, I have no sympathy for you.  You did whatever you could do to screw artists out of “intellectual property” rights, the fact it is happening to you because you are too stupid to adjust to the market is karma. Adapt or die. It truly is your choice.
