Although maybe it is just the majors that are threatening this? In the future, hopefully FLAC becomes the norm, then all we need is the facility to play the music files back on equipment comparable to CD players. I suppose all this becomes even more inevitable with this announcement today http://pitchfork.com/news/44653-google-l aunches-google-music/ | ||

That is genuinely scary. I hope there is no truth in it, but undoubtedly there is. | ||
