That is already the case. Technically, when you buy the cd, you are buying the medium the music is imprinted on and right to listen to it, but not the music itself.

Wrong. That's where "Fair Use" comes in.

Anyway, since this article appears to be bullshit...

(I'm not saying the RIAA aren't bad, bad people. I'm not saying that they don't think of ripping your music as stealing. They may. What I am saying is that this article, which has been picked up in a lot of places, ignores what the legal filings actually say in favor of a rant against the RIAA. And I don't blame people for getting caught up in that.)
