Digital Music…Is It Really the Wave of the Future?

Recently the Register has posted the headline stating that Apple’s iTunes sales are “collapsing”. While this might be a embellishment for headline’s sake, perhaps there is some data to back it up. Perhaps the RIAA scare has subsided long enough that the majority of mp3 owners are back to their old tricks. Now believe me, I’m not saying that piracy ended because of iTunes, but I am saying that it took the heat off of the witch hunt that began by the RIAA haunting every Limewire, BearShare, and Morpheus user out there….the parents of the pirates at least.

My vote is…digital music is here to stay. It’s just now becoming a standard retail market of its own with the seasonal ups and downs of sales.
