Script
Robbie Williams is a phenomenon in the pop music industry. Hes only recently signed a new 120 million dollar contract with his British-based record company, EMI, after more than five years of continual album hits and number one singles. But neither EMI nor any of its rival companies are likely to be impressed by Williams latest comments that music piracy is in fact a good thing, for they believe it is costing the industry millions of dollars every year.
Robbie says that before renegotiating his new contract, he investigated the issue of Internet piracy, and he asked each of the record companies, "What are you going to do about it?" All he got back, he says, was a lot of angry words. Those record companies who have helped make Robbie Williams extremely rich have been taking legal actions against online song-swapping services and the growing phenomenon of domestic compact disc copying. Artists and companies have been united in their protest that millions of dollars are being taken away from the creative music process. But other people might say that this hasnt stopped either the artists or the companies becoming very rich indeed from the sale of overpriced compact discs.
