It´s like with everything on our small tiny blue Planet....it´s all
about power (and protecting the posession of it), money and a few
ppl, who takes themselves too important.

Now i understand, why the entertainment industry is pushing streaming
technologies so hard...Music, Movies, Books and TV on demand...the
biggest business on the world....
Well i hope the consumer is not so stupid, as the industry believes...

Well, "they" brought us also these hyper-dangerous nuclear, chemical

Well, i don´t have a problem with MP3. With 160kb/s it´s quite
adequate to a normal CD.
