Fun fact: Pink Floyd's Pulse album was mixed in QSound, the same 3D audio technology used in Capcom's CPS2 games, such as Street Fighter Alpha and Marvel vs. Capcom. And one of Paula Abdul's albums. But don't think too hard about that.
The problem with X party blocked X bill that would have prevented X is that yes the bill probably would have worked great, buuuttt they put XYZDCBG in said bill as an attempt to sneak things in that tend to be completely unrelated to the original bills intent. It sucks because if they would just do a single thing they could probably get something done...
