12 years ago, and more meaningful today than ever.
Fortunately musicians are starting to (finally) get a few more options to escape The Cartel.
Much like Universal attacked MegaUpload regarding their self produced YouTube video, I have to wonder how much effort would be directed at killing new independent digital publishing venues via bogus claims using SOPA / PIPA style laws. The answer is probably: a lot.
What's great is that the cartel is so late to the digital game. They've fucked themselves, and the only thing left to do is do what they've always done...lobby.
But it's too late. It's game over for these jerks. Whether it takes 5 or 15 years, they're on the downward slope in terms of control.
