These music companies have NO FUCKING CLUE. Who in there right mind is going to pay $10-20 for a bunch of mp3's you have to wait to download and what IS NOT CD quality. These idiots don't realize how hard its going to be sell a product (MP3) to the world that everyone has accessed FOR FREE over the last 4 years.
What they need to do is start selling the MP3 music online for $5 per FULL CD. That is reasonable, and they still make money. People would buy a CD at that price (myself included)
AND they should sell the FULL version of the CD for $10-15, for those that want CD quality. I have a CD I want to buy right now and if I could go online to say "onlinemusic.com" and pay my $10-15 and download it and then burn it I'd be happy too, saves me going to the mall and walking all the way into the mall to find the damn CD store to buy my 1 CD.
I don't use MP3 other than in my car (a friend burned me 8 full mp3 CD) like 2000 songs or something. The quality is just not the same and if I really want to enjoy a song I get the CD, and will continue to buy CD's as I like listening to Audiophile music.
