I'm talking about music. Software should not follow those arguments i've told. nor can i think about than right now. And neither have i told that they should follow that order i've wrote. Video Games too, but despite of the piracy the game instustry is bigger than in nintendo time. Tv shows? tv and cinema will never loose their money, is that even talked about?

but specifically about non-performance based digitally distributed copyrighted works... well, are there any significant numbers of those to represent a 'visible minority' that would influence the industry? I dont think so, but i might be wrong. Before the digital age of easy-recording they would hardly get recorded, i think. Like bands from the 70s as "The Cosmic Jojers"... or "Grobbschnit". Dont know, i might be foolish.
