USE ME/ABUSE ME: The recording industry is worried about sales of used CDs. "The industry worries that the expanding used market is cannibalizing new-CD sales, as well as promoting piracy by allowing consumers to buy, record and sell back discs while retaining their own digitally pristine copies. One proposed remedy being debated by record label executives is federal legislation requiring used-CD retailers to pay royalties on secondary sales of albums." San Diego Union-Tribune 06/14/02
