In response to "Financially for the producing machine/record companies, I think it's true." by Callisto

Maybe I'm reading the statement differently. I'm assuming it means "people are not buying less CDs because they can download digitally."

I agree that from a financial perspective, the record companies are making less because they aren't selling CD's at a higher cost and therefore making more profit (although from studies I've seen, it's not much more profit than from a digital download).

But P2P networks and 'legal' digital downloads, I think, means people are buying less physical CDs.

The article is all about how the record companies can stay in business. So I think you're reading it wrong. -- nm - Subversive Mar 13, 06:36 1
- I understood what the article was about, but I just thought that statement to lead it off was very incorrect. (Or maybe poorly worded?) -- nm - JaxSean Mar 13, 06:45
