Mr. Michael Robertson

Of course, fans and detractors of MP3.com will be sad to see that Michael Robertson will no longer head the company he founded in 1998.Mr. Robertson will step down as CEO and be replaced by current president, Robin Richards, who will take the portfolio of Chairman and CEO.
...
Michael will take a diminished role as a special advisor to the VU CEO.For years, Michael was the torch bearer for the digital music revolution... however, his fire slowly faded as the lawsuits against MP3.com by the major labels, and others, took its toll on the company and its bottom line, and then his fire seemed to completely disappeared once VU announced the purchase of MP3.com for $372 million earlier in the year.
