little do they know its actually bin laden in co-operation with the palestinians working with iraq, north korea, cuba, FARC, china, the taliban and greenpeace who are responsible for the drop in sales and not simply the music industry impolding under the weight of the ****e its produced.

"Ha ha decadent western pig dogs, first your music, then your womens right to show their faces. without entertainment the great satans people will find allah, and join us ha hah haah haaaha" said an official spokepersion for the axis of evil earlier today.

As I said before, piracy has f*ck all to do with a global downturn in music sales. People aren't interested in buying music anymore because
1. Pop music sucks.
2. The radios play songs ad nauseum, eliminating the need to actually buy the frickin things.

I read a great article in some paper a few weeks back about it. They showed that the music scene is experienceing the exact same thing as happened to the magazine industry.
Rolling Stone Magazine used to be 'the thing to have, and the thing to have you face on'. Ditto for Time magazine. But now, magazines are middle-of-the-road sellers. People buy them when they feel like it, and they're not seen as essential things to have every month. People aren't as loyal to magazines, if at all. How many people here buy Rolling Stone or Time?

Hopefully this is what's happening to the music industry, so eventually we will just be left with interested, dedicated artists who are doing it becuase they love it, not to extract every last penny from the parents of teenagers.

err yeah nelly and britney.......if they listened to their own music now and then they mite see why there is a dip in sales
could have something to do with the fact that it is all commercialised rubbish.

I doubt even fans of Britney spears illegally download the songs-theyd rather shell out the fiver to pay for the single that theyve already heard on the radio a billion times.
I mean honestly,the only unauthorised download of Britney Spears most of us will ever look for goes along the lines of britney_givin_head.mpeg
If you had errorcom no-speed you can download it in an hour 40 minutes apparently
