This is the best they can come up with?

The New York Times reports that the FTC has found problems with the music industry. What’s do they say the industry is up to? Price-fixing? Payola? Anti-competitive practices?

No. Apparently the problem is that the music industry has “not done enough to promote warnings and curb advertising of inappropriate material in magazines and on television shows intended for young audiences.”

Jesus Christ. Honestly, if there were any competition in the music industry, or any reason at all for those companies to give a damn what their customers think of them, the market would handle this problem anyway.
