  Isn't this old news?
  
  I could've sworn I remember hearing about these sort of techniques in the old Napster, Kazaa, pre-torrent p2p days.

  Physical Media or Business Related?

  on Once Again: The Music Industry Does Not Equal The CD Business
  I'm seeing a two-fold set of issues in that poorly titled op-ed piece that have little to do with the RIAA dinosaur itself.
  
  1) Languishing business model - the entertainment biz has yet to figure out the online model and a change in royalty revenues.
  
  2) Of course CD sales are down, who isn't straying away from physical mediums these days; when you're carrying around a hard-drive in your pocket and can stream media directly to your TV/device/computer/magic box.
