Missing Paragraphs from SBP

SOMETHING GOES MISSING in the Sunday Business Post coverage of music downloading. The article points to causes and effects of the digital music revolution but misses the key point that today's digital download market is now big enough to make digital-only music distribution a viable approach. As Chris Anderson says, "That market is only going to get bigger, so I'd expect many other music labels to follow this approach (as they're already doing with their digital-only labels for new releases of smaller bands, an effort that was led by Warner's Cordless and Universal's UMe)."
