The low-hanging fruit

In some ways. I don't even own a traditional CD player. All my music is done on computer or digital audio player. However I still buy CDs¹. There is no enticing reason for me to buy from a place like iTunes. It's hardly cheaper, the DRM offends me, it's not lossless and nowhere near as portable. CDs are still a better value for those who like a full album. Not to mention the online market is fragmented so many ways. P2P or legit. Apple or Yahoo or X or Z. etc. Plus you have those who don't even use a computer. It will take cooperation and coordination. Those won't be coming anytime soon.

¹ Lest others think my priorities messed up a tip to The Cellar is coming when I have $ again
