That's the RIAA's dream, yeah.  They want to get paid every time you
listen to anything, AND still tell you where and when you can listen to
it and on what.  They're desperately trying to prop up a dying-or-dead
business model and they're too blind to see that their complete
bloody-minded refusal to adapt is just driving more nails into their own
coffin.  Give it another ten years and if it even still exists, the RIAA
will be utterly irrelevant.
