It's interesting - but nobody saw anyone like Apple or MySpace coming along and getting involved in it all. The future back in 2000 looked very fuzzy indeed for all involved in music. They knew it as changing, but had no idea how.
However, you'd have to bet against the record industry going forwards. They no longer have an iron grip over the distribution, which was their great monopoly.
