Here's a link to a Washington Post article on the recent dustup with MoFi. The comments section (including posts by Michael Fremer) are interesting.

What next? Cuban cigars with a smattering of North Carolina tobacco?
 Jim Davis’s response makes sense to me but some will call it spin.

At least as printed on the MoFi website, the questions lobbed to Davis are all marshmellows.  Presumably because MoFi advertises on TAS

Jim Davis spun the story well but if it gets into the court system the only winners will be the lawyers

So the old process that degrades after so many copies resulting in loss of quality that buyers can hear but is saved by digital means which more accurately maintains the quality of the original is not good enough for those who now want to sue. 

Talk about clinging to the past.
