CONSIDER THIS! We have a HIGH VALUE product (catalogue of 20,000 top songs)... and REAL INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP (VP of Sales for Sony)... ALL SITES on R/S's advise you to THINK... and while typically NEGATIVE, that's only when they're in threat of being de-listed... when they've been going at it for awhile. THE ONLY LEGITIMATE REASON I can think of is to ATTRACT INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS and play in the BIG LEAGUE... Marc perhaps knew this would be the short-term effect on the security (not to his advantage!!), but realizes early in the ballgame NOW is the time to get in a higher altitude...
