An interesting op piece in the Guardian by Victor Keegan on the constant hullabaloo over music downloads. He points out that despite the claims of dramatic drops in CD sales, sales are actually expected to show an increase here in the UK. There’s nothing particularly new in this piece, but I’m linking it in for my own collection.

Avedon Carol also made some eloquent points a few days back on this issue, inspired by suggestions from the RIAA that ISPs should bear the cost of music “piracy”.
