 Record Industry Wants Royalties for Used CDs
According to the Tribune the record industry is considering charging used CD retailers a royalty for every CD they resell.
Does this mean this is all the music we ever listen to?
One of the most prominent examples is for the industry to distort the notion that you buy a CD by claiming that all this time you have been only renting it.

 TimesDispatch.com Record industry is not singing in harmony
Apparently the record industry believes access to free music does indeed boost sales - but only if the music is shared by a label, not by a music fan with a home computer and Internet access.
The record industry continues to simultaneously regard the Internet as a threat to its existence and the key to prosperity.
While the industry clings to the argument that file sharing hurts sales because people won't buy what they can get for free, record labels have begun to offer free, high-quality streams of soon-to-be-released albums in hopes the exposure will stimulate sales.
