State of the Biz

One final thing that always ticks me off about the Grammy's, is Grammy head Neil Portnow's yearly State of the Biz talk. A few minutes every year in which Portnow chastises the listening public for stealing music, yet never does the same to his beloved Industry for failing to come up with things the public wanted: lower prices and easier access to whatever they wanted to hear. No, Portnow still believes that the old RIAA adage about "stealing" music will win over the music public, who now find their music either free or for the cheap.
