		Michael Robertson: The problem with MP3s posted to usenet is that the artists didn't make that choice to have their music freely accessible.

		Michael Robertson: I would say that probably the number 1 feedback we get is that it's from international users.

	Once more into the breach, Michael Robertson » mathewingram.com/work
		Michael Robertson has been a thorn in the side of the music business longer than just about anybody, including Steve Jobs and Shawn “Napster” Fanning.
		But before the new venture was even a day old, Michael’s plans, which he writes about on his blog, had hit a major snag.
		This apparently got at least one label upset: Warner Music came out within hours of Michael’s announcement and ordered him to remove any WMG files from the service — even though all the appropriate royalties would be paid as though someone had actually bought the CD.
