RIAA Blaming MP3 For Dwindling Music Sales Among Teenagers
from the guess-it's-time-to-go-sue-someone-else-now dept
A recent study by the RIAA is apparently suggesting that "illegal" downloads of MP3 is causing fewer legitimate sales of music to teenagers. Somehow I get the feeling that the RIAA, instead of dealing with this properly, realizing that MP3 is here to stay, will try to blame someone and put up false barriers to prevent people from getting MP3s. Good luck.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
