Sorry, should have suggested some positive alternatives rather than just
moaning.

For mp3s there is www.emusic.com, I think they specialise in 'alternative'
music so probably don't do the major labels.  There is Napster, and also I
believe that the Itunes scripts that are available will soon support the
Apple music store.  Not mp3 I know, but better than nothing.
