In 2003, CRIA and others associated with the music industry launched a high profile "education" campaign on music and copyright. Titled Keep Music Coming, the campaign centered around a website at keepmusiccoming.com, supported by national advertising and inserts in CDs (archive.org version).
Today I received an email from someone who just purchased a CD which included an insert directing him to the campaign site. He was surprised to find that keepmusiccoming.com is no longer maintained by the industry as it has become a pay-per-click advertising site. The domain lapsed earlier this week with no indication whether this was a domain name registration error or if the campaign has been abandoned. Either way, music is still coming nearly three years after the campaign launch as a growing number of labels and artists want to respect their fans, not "educate" them.
