Scheffler should indeed be the no-brainer here. Yet every week we are more & more overdue for ESPN to pull one of its classic "Jack Harlow/Kane Brown's". The other choices listed are for the most part ok, but Scheffler had one of the all-time great seasons in golf. :golfnana:

Keep in mind this was before anyone could find music on YouTube or Spotify

now anyone can listen to music on YouTube.


You post this like I wasn't alive in the early 2000's.

movie and video game downloading were more of an issue than music IMO

The music industry was hit the hardest by file sharing becoming mainstream because the MP3 format made the files relatively small and therefore quick and easy to download. People stopped buying $15-20 CDs and just pirated the few good songs instead.

Sure, movie and video game piracy existed, but the file sizes made it infeasible for most users at the time.

Famously, the Dreamcast had it's copy protection broken, and groups would crack games and resize them down to fit on burnable CDs.

But video games are niche compared to the popularity/ubiquity of music, with video game piracy being even more niche.

PC gaming piracy would have become more prevalent and feasible as the 2000's went on, but the other major consoles weren't cracked as easily as the Dreamcast.
