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

We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop.
You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens.

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.
