I got the NMA letter and the Artist newsletter, yes. Two days ago. If they had handled it better this situation wouldn't have anywhere near this number of people annoyed and upset.

One thread on mp3.com's forum said "The Whiners will be leaving on April 1st" or something like that. But, you know a ship is in trouble when the rats desert it...

Depends on your definition of rats, I guess. The rat lawyers are still there, making things hard for the artists, so I guess there might be something left of mp3.com even if the "whiners" leave.

This whole business of PAS and P4P is really showing the inner workings of mp3.com in a way that they might not want to see... and like anything else, it has its good points and its bad points.

I will stay. But I am not so eager to support them as I once was, when I felt that they really were on the side of the artists, and not JUST out for money.
