More music industry bumbling

So here is a classic poor customer service/bad distribution channel story. So a couple weeks ago I went to see Kill Bill. Loved it. As usual, Quentin did a GREAT job on the soundtrack. So next day I go to Tower with money in hand. Out of stock. Barnes and Noble, out of stock. Silver platters, out of stock. Amazon, week wait (maybe longer).

So I fire up Kazaa. All there for free. I call a friend who offers to download it and burn a CD for free. Being the law abiding citizen that I am, of course I don't do that. But that doesn't solve my problem. I saw the movie. I loved the soundtrack. I want to buy the soundtrack. I can't.

The music industry is screwed.
