After watching the RIAAs public Dance of Death closely for only about a year, everything they do is so predictable that Im beginning to wonder if they even have any control over their own destiny. For some inexplicable reason, they seem compelled to follow through until the final scene, perhaps unaware that theres been a rewrite in the ending over the last 90 years.While suggested reading is the series I did earlier on Thomas Edison, here is a synopsis of how Edisons approach to running an entertainment industry so closely parallels what the RIAA is trying to do. After all, the goal is the same -- to maintain a monopoly.
