Am I the only person who sees a tiny little discrepancy here?

Since you "borrowed" this item off RAHE...the answer is no.

This whole argument of % of RIAA sales is bogus to me
anyway. I already know that my favs are shared by a fraction
of the masses..probably even less than Ludovics and Pauls.
Wait a sec...does that mean I can be even snobbier than
they are?

ScottW defines snobbery:

Snobbery means liking things not favoured by "the masses".

Like a foreign language or two, interest in astrophysics, other
countries and travelling, history, Norton Simon Museum... continue ad
lib.

Since the same claim was posted here, don't you think we deserve an
explanation from John?

No...the guy on RAHE pretty well covered it.
John's position is his own with no source while the
counter claim is sourced from the RIAA.
What is there left to be said?

So, you're saying that the guy on RAHE is John's spokesman????

John's position is his own with no source while the
counter claim is sourced from the RIAA.


I'd like to know where John gets off saying that the RIAA stats are not what
the RIAA clearly says they are.

What is there left to be said?


Whatever John says to explain what he said.

It's back to business as usual for Mr. Krooger.

I'd like to know where John gets off saying that the RIAA stats are not what
the RIAA clearly says they are.


Snottiness noted.
