If I had a million downloads.......

Someone with influence in the music industry has finally offered up an idea I've had for years. Steve Page from the Barenaked Ladies in an interview with Ars Technica, suggested P2P blanket license fees that we could pay to get the right to download unlimited music. It's what the music-listening public wants. Blanket licenses already exist, (jukeboxes, records, radio, and live performance) so why can't we get that as an option?

This is a smart, informed gentleman who has the answer folks.......... Music industry? Listen up!
