How many folks out there have used these technologies and miss them lots?
I still miss Napster. Too bad the recording industry could never grasp the idea that downloads should be free if only to draw people to concerts and other promotional ideas. It would have allowed independents to “compete” for popularity, which would have reduced the cost of promotion, which would have allowed the industry to sign and promote an even larger pool of artists. . .
But that’s the free market, late ’90’s dot-com capitalist talking.
