I believe Bowie is right on target. With the ability for individual's to download basically anything they want off the internet for free, why wouldn't you see the current state of Copyright law disintegrate. I believe that each individual artist will need to look into new technology and ways to brand their image and promote their music. Technology and the internet will provide that, if they are willing to use it to their advantage. It's just like everything else in life, it goes through stages of evolution and if they don't keep up with it, they'll get left behind.
