More on a musician in a very fruity situation

Here is a little more on the Fiona Apple situation. This article has little more info and all sorts of links. Now I know I'm kinda harping on this, but this is just such a blatant display of what is wrong with the music industry, that I can't help it.Also this shows why the copyright laws need work, these laws no longer protect the artists or are in the best interest of the public. I'm not trying to tell you that p2p should be legal or that I should be able to freeload off of artists. Actually I am saying quite the opposite, these laws need to be changed to protect the artists. Although I do believe that p2p and artists can, not only work together, but profit from each other. I believe that the well being of our artists, technology, and the general public, are all very closely knit together.

BAH I didn't mean to write this long tonight. Well in any case here is one more story. A story of a rather intelligent young man(although his owning an Ipod would suggest otherwise), a letter he wrote, and the schemings of a (hopefully) dieing cartel.

-night to all

PS Yes I'm insulting you if you have an Ipod take it up with Kal el at http://pretentiouslytitledblog.blogspot.com if you have a problem with it, he can tell you just how much you deserve it better then I can.
