The Kids are all right
I believe this is what the kids at NTK would refer to as “Anti-News”: The RIAA is wrong.
According to a new report, Napster, Audiogalaxy et al were not responsible for any loss of record sales. The economic downturn and increasing popularity of DVDs and Video Games were.
My favourite statistics from the report:
31% of consumers download music and burn CDs often. These frequent digital music users buy 36% of all CDs.
If only this would help resuscitate AG. Gawd, I miss it.
