Mind you, I should add that it's not the recording artists resisting the whole MP3 and filesharing thing -- it's the record industry itself, most of which can't carry a tune and thinks boy bands are a pretty neat idea. Under the changes that almost necessarily have to take place, such giant organisations will go the way fo the dinosaur rather quickly, and they know it. They will have to get jobs working off their own skills rather than the skills and popularity of others. They will also lose control of their chunk of the media, and such control is, quite literally, power.
