5. What these morons don't get..
Edited on Mon Dec-15-08 10:00 PM by sendero
... is that a product that used to cost tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars to produce can now be produced by anyone with a $600 PC.

Music is now a commodity like pork bellies and lots of talented people who no longer have to play the label game are making it.

Music will never be the cash cow it was ever again. And these parasites will die. And as for the oh so scary idea that even indies won't be able to get published, well, that is pure bollocks.

It's a new world and frankly it is good news for lovers of seriously good music, which record labels have proven time and time again, they couldn't find with both hands and a map.
