More Music Industry Idiocy

Read on Slashdot, ASCAP Says Apple Should Pay For 30-sec. Song Samples.

OK. This defies logic. So in order for consumers to preview a song online to determine if it's one we want to buy, now there will be an additional royalty cost worked into the price??? Do the people in the music industry trade associations go to school and learn about marketing? It certainly doesn't seems so.
