It does hurt, but the mistake that the music industry made was that they decided to start trying to sue consumers - many of them college students. I don't know about you, but that would turn me off of buying CDs for the rest of my life. That isn't the answer.
We, as an industry, are seriously experiencing a combination of negative factors right now. The bulk of free content is one of those factors. The down economy is another.
