2.00 3.00 The AB of CD
Is that brand-new CD player in your living room already a museum piece? Are you the proud owner of a £10 disc that probably cost £1 to make? Do you ever feel that the record companies are quite happy to put a lot of their old records on CD rather than a great left-field band - and sing all the way to the bank?
Ro Newton asks Barry Fox to predict the future of digital technology, and Simon Bates hauls the record company bosses up by their bank balances to find out why they would rather you never hear of spoilers, copycode, DAT - and profits.
Producer JONATHAN RUFFLE (Re-broadcast on Thursday at 9.00pm)
