Again: Does that matter? What – specifically – is the problem?
Ignore the word ownership and its definition for a second: Is the amount of stuff you can do with files compared to CDs really a problem? It’s clear to me what I can and cannot do, I can make an informed decision and I really can’t understand people who think that what they give up with files is a problem.
They might personally prefer to – for example – re-sell their music. That’s fine. I don’t need that. But that’s a question about taste, not any kind of earth shattering problem.
