The Greater Crime of Extreme Control of Music
We all remember the horror stories about Metallica suing their fans, and the RIAA suing… everyone. Their goal was simple–stop the illegal download of music. At some point, they woke up and realized it was bad business to sue their customers. That was great timing for iTunes who quickly dominated the market by offering reasonably […]
