Re: Doing it the correct way (was: Putting out your CD)

The IFPI is what the RIAA's piracy group WISHES they could be.  This Gang 
of 
Four has yearly announcements about efforts they're supposedly doing 
against 
piracy, what a threat piracy is to (fill in the gap, what will it be this 
year? "threatens local repertoire" was the poor example in 2004).

If you want retail placement outside the US, one needs an ISRC code.  It's 
a 
fairly innocuous thing as far as I understand, though it has the potential 
for real abuse given the absence of management such things garner.  
Remains 
to be seen.
