New Online Music Push by EMI 330
akadruid writes "EMI has signed deals with 20 top European websites to sell its music online.
According to Reuters, 'Consumers will be able to make permanent copies of songs and transfer them to recordable CDs, portable music players and their computer hard drives'.
This represents a major shift in policy by EMI, who previously went to great lengths to protect their music from copying.
Does this mark the beginning of a major change in the music industry?"

Don't like any of those....just a few of the "dance" tracks (think: In Da Club - by 50 cent).
I'm very keen to get the opinion of a TOTAL audiophile such as yourself...
What exactly is it about "In Da Club" that you enjoy? Is it the insightful, thought-provoking lyrics? Their expressive, passionate delivery? Or maybe the innovative and challenging music?
It sure is nice to hear from those who truly appreciate fine art, and not just from people who blindly accept whatever crap they hear endlessly on the radio and MTV.
