Why the music industry can eat my ass
As technology progresses forward, often times old ways are replaced by new, better methods of doing things. This is very true for music and the internet. Before the internet there was a need for a layer between artists and fans. This layer consisted of marketing, packaging, shipping, and selling of cds, tapes, records, ect.. Currently most of the money brought in from these sales goes to this layer, artists make their money from performing shows for fans. With the emergence of file sharing programs the need for this layer has passed. I suggest we do everything in our power to remove this layer. The internet provides a level playing ground for all artists, it allows fans to appreciate music without filling the wallets of greedy corporate dickheads. I call out to all music fans, don't give your money to this layer, save your money to spend on shows, to reward the actual artists and prevent the profits of these *****s.
A mind full of questions has no room for answers
