Traditional RIAA Business Model: Thy Days Are Numbered

i want an ipod.

the real nugget to take from this story is towards the end -- the ipod as a micro-broadcaster. i am astounded at the possibilities. what would be even cooler is if ipods or other mp3 players could become something like a wireless world wide music web -- broadcasting playlists not just to people nearby, but to anyone with access to a wireless network.
