For younger folks on Usenet: remember what it was like when the Public Harmony Acts were in full effect?

Everyone on our dorm floor huddled around a 25-inch Radiant Television console with the blinds drawn.
With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl.

It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred.

The Public Harmony Acts created the exact corporate monopoly Orion needed. No touring costs, zero physical risk.

Unsubscribe me from this list! (Wait, this is Usenet, never mind).
