One more point worth considering. We were conditioned to associate the music with the medium, because it was more profitable. Now it is not anymore and there lies the problem.

In the past I bought a MC and then I bought a CD. I paid twice for the same work. Did the shop offer me a discount? No.

Do I get a discount when I watch the same movie twice in a cinema or if I buy a DVD after I have seen the movie in the cinema? No.

Do I get easy access to mp3 if I buy a CD? No.

The movie/music industry simply sends the wrong signals...
