You don't pay Detroit every time you buy a used car. You don't pay the RIAA when you buy a used CD or a thrift store record. They are likely uninterested in a CD that would only sell a few hundred copies. They won't make it. There really needs to be a way to share out of print music. It has no impact on the corporation. If any impact, it would be positive. It raises interest in music only known to a few people with the records before. It might even lead to a use of the song in some medium that would generate income like a commercial or movie...
