Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.

No news day? Sometime i
No news day?Sometime i wonder why people like you like to write opinionated pieces like this.
This is a case between eminem and universal and not with Apple.
This clown from universal should be sacked for saying 'we didn't always manage to collect' for not doing his job and why he didn't pursue it in court?
And you should take a look in the mirror and honestly ask yourself why are you bashing Apple, it is because you are a microsoft fanboi or very envious of the success of Apple.
Just my highly opinionated piece.
Apple bashing? Not how I read it.
I'm not sure what the prior comment about Apple bashing is referring to. That's certainly not how I read the article. This is a highly complex topic and probably deserves a longer piece, if not an entire book, but I think the main point about digital download licensing not really fitting the physical precedents is well made. I don't think Apple is the bad guy here, and I'm not convinced the author does either.THANK YOU FOR WRITING THIS ARTCLE
As an aspiring artist any facts about litigation is good information. Sounds like CEO's left those last two comments.The Cat Must Be Let Out Of The Bag
It's time the music industry cat is let out of the bag. The door has to be flung wide open so we can collectively create a fair business model for all parties involved. Why do the labels get to sign deals with the likes of YouTube & Facebook etc that allow them to revenue share in streaming music and advertising- but not an individual artist or independent label hasn't a chance in sharing any such monies????Artists like Slim Shady who want to open the books and minds of the big corporations will only make for more constructive progress to have a fair business model.
....just wait until the labels start pounding lawsuits on the ISP's for users downloading free files. This is something they should have been vigorous about from the beginning. Steal free music and have your internet turned off. It's getting pretty old how people are devaluating music, something that has not had a very fair adjustment along with real life inflation over the last 30 years.
What needs to happen is- Superstar Artists need to play more live shows, lower ticket prices,(work harder like they used to) and songwriters compensated more to the realities of cost of living over the last 30 years.
Labels need to accept the fact that they will now just be basically like an investment banking company who also provides marketing services on a mass scale and adjust their business accordingly- something I see they already doing. (I never new what a new what a "Director of Digital Business" was...ie the new VP of Distribution.
The pie is alot huger than anyone has ever imagined and the labels should ease off on the greed, because the ball is now in the hands of the artist...there is enough money in this music world for everyone involved and fair partnerships will prove more fruitful than the individual parts.
