not true. in fact, i would argue that the difficulty of finding good music is widespread throughout the states. i attribute this to the clueless, braindead fools who are governed by the radio...and we all know the stupidity of the people who control the radio stations.
So what you are complaining about is market forces?
When the market is "what a bunch of guys in suits decide is what I should be able to buy" -- YES! The reason unauthorized copying takes place to the extent it does is the absolute disreguard for "the market" that those making the decisions on what is available and/or what is promoted have for those "market forces". When was the last time that actual supply and demand actually made a difference in how much you had to pay for a movie or DVD? Who else are you going to get it from? The bootleg market is the only real competition these conglomerates have. alan@ctrl-alt-del.com | Note to AOL users: for a quick shortcut to reply Alan Olsen | to my mail, just hit the ctrl, alt and del keys.
