Sony & BMG merge

More bad news on the music front. For those of you that don't know (which i suspect is only a few) Sony and BMG are amongst the big four CD producers. A merger will give the major player (Sony) massive clout in the music replay world - and give us less choice!. Sony is a also one of the driving forces behind "music protection".

And you thought things couldn't get any worse!!
