The music revolution is over. And the kids won. 
Just 3 years ago an old white but powerful man Jack Valenti, representing the record companies, started suing 12 year olds for downloading music, saying that 12 year olds were responsible for the moral decay of society.
Last week, the war was declared over. And the kids won.
1. In my online class last week, teachers who just a year ago were decrying the illegal downloading of music, now were begging for web sites where they can download free music.
2. The world's largest record company, Vivendi Universal, started itself a free downloading service where listeners can download its music.
The 1999-2006 seven years war over music was not about legal vs. illegal, or even about music. It was about transitioning the economy from tangible goods (e.g. CDs) to intangible goods (downloaded music). The change is huge, and the kids won easily.
