Yes, although when you have to go to great lenghts to track down a CD that ends up being really expensive, and if it is something that's limited edition and hard to get, and you end up getting it used for $40 just because it's so rare, then the artist doesn't benefit anyway. Out of curiosity, how do you feel about used CDs? SomaFM is looking to start licensing content for a pay per download service. I think that people would be willing to pay $2 to download a high quality version of a track they're looking for. Initially we'd target stuff thats' only released on vinyl or out of print. Labels still seem scared to do license the content though. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
