Stardate 20010728.0834 (On Screen): This article in the mainstream press, about the upcoming digital music offerings by the big recording labels, is refreshing in that it states that what's being offered will be a commercial failure. The reason is simple: no-one will want to buy on the terms under which this material is being offered. We all know that, but it's nice to see someone in the mainstream press acknowledge it for a change, using phrases like "wishful thinking" and "disaster".
