HE MIGHT ALSO WANT TO ASK FOR THE FLYPOSTING TO BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION: Oh, we wail, how can the RIAA expect us to keep on the straight and narrow when they're so naughty all the time? Why, the former head of Vivendi Universal is being held by French police investigating financial misconduct at the record label's parent company. They're trying to get to the bottom of a massive sharebuyback, which Vivendi used to try and stop its share price from tanking in late 2001, an activity which, shareholder's group APPAC claims, decieved investors and caused lots of them to lose money - not just small investors having their hard-earned savings diddled from them, but pension funds, companies which look after charity incomes, and so on. All makes downloading a copy of an early Pulp song seem like small beer, doesn't it?
