Well said Beast, attacking someone is always counterproductive, Humphrey as you rightly say will just dig his heels in at the "plebs" who are causing so much bother.
When his revenue dips (as I suspect it will, dramatically) he might reconsider.
However please bear in mind that we, that is folkies, are only a small part of his revenue base, by far the larger part are those people who actually like and want big screen TV's jukeboxes etc. Now whether they have co-ordinated a group to write to Humphrey is debatable and possibly unlikely but it is possible that we will see the return of these items that some of us would happily do without, as they do sadly provide a wider customer base
