Maybe the next deal, Warner could, you know, sign artists that can sing or compose their own music? Then they could stop using the excuse of piracy for their falling sales of music and films. If you think this is a troll post, just listen or watch what passes for "modern" music or films.

What's composition or vocal ability have to do with pop music? Pop has always been about the flash and the tits and the swiveling hips and the costumes and the post-production, since the dawn of the Rock-n-Roll era. Why does this bother anyone? Don't like it, there's a hundred other genres, and now, with the Internet, a fan can actually *find* these other genres and not piss and moan about how e-e-e-e-vil over-the-air radio doesn't play anything other than pop.
I grew up with the British Invasion: One-Hit-Wonder Boy Groups with Liverpudlian accents who dressed like mid-shipmen in a Horatio Hornblower movie. I -- and the rest of civilization -- survived just fine, thanks for asking.
