The first time I copied a mp3 file, I knew right away that this is going to be a disaster. No, of course not the copying itself, but the fact that I could drag and drop a music file from one hard disk to another within seconds, was quite a shock to me.

We always think of the artists/musicians, but we shouldn’t forget that there was a huge team working in the background to deliver the record to the end-consumer – us. All this work has cost a lot of money, because top producers like Quincy Jones and A&Rs like John Kalodner had to be paid from the revenue made from the record sales.
