Streaming Warner

The news last week that Warner Music is going to pull their songs from streaming services is but the latest bonehead decision the record companies continue to make at the expense of the consumer. As someone who's been streaming albums for awhile, I can tell you that if I hear something I like, I usually end up buying the album or a song. But if I don't get a chance at hearing something, I'm likely to pass-barring a major critical consensus.
But this is 2010, and for a record company or an artist not to have their material available at the click of a mouse is preposterous, dangerous and irresponsible.
