"In so many ways it's turned our business back into a singles business," says Ken Levitan, Kid Rock's manager. Mr. Levitan says the rise of iTunes is far from being a boon to the industry; instead, he calls it "part of the death knell of the music business."

Oh no...... It's a '
part of the death knell of the music business' that people can choose the songs they want to buy?

Now it's not, now it's a buyers market. So either adapt to it or f
