Licence ???
A licence would allow folks to download the media they purchased if it got damaged, its certainly not a licence, a partial licence perhaps, one should remember the two sides of this coin, you buy it and you own it ... NO says the cartels your just buying the plastic, you don't own the music on the plastic.
Their other side of the coin is to say the music is not owned but licenced, they say the same about movies and games but go ask them to replace a scratched disk and they change their tune very quickly, you cant do that they say which is strange as you have already paid them the "licence" and thus your entitled to a cheaper copy as you should never need to pay a "licence" for the same material twice, I personally would prefer it if the recording industry became redundant and died out and artists marketed themselves direct to the public with the actual merchandise shipping straight from a pressing plant, paying some fat middle man to sit on his ..mattress snorting cocaine is certainly not what the copyright law should ever be about.
I support artists but most certainly have no time for fat lazy people who sponge off those who create and pay for holidays for lawmakers and the influencial.
