Don't know about a metaphor but it's news to me!

I had no idea...

Here's the list from OD2's site:

mycokemusic.com
MSN Music Club
Wanadoo
HMV Digital Downloads
Tiscali Music Club
Ministry Of Sound
Virgin Downloads

They don't mention oxfam on the front page so I assume there
are others who they act for who don't want direct association.

There I was thinking there was competition. I imagine the record
industry will find one medium player easier to keep tabs on than
many minnows...time will tell.
