Good point. I just hate seeing these stories, knowing that the artists everyone is talking about, will never see any of this money. My actual solution to this problem was to quit buying CD's and also uninstalling Kazaa. It just ended up being more money for beer.
Doh! And I thought only hot blondes and guys with cool, highlighted hair could sing. The world as I know it is crumbling. I COULD HAVE BEEN A STAR!
or something like that...
I agree, this is a sad state.
I loved those Napster flash cartoons! We used to play them over and over (while downloading) and LOFAO. I still have them tucked away...somewhere.
Beer, good.
I still say that I won't buy any more music until I can DL it directly from a musician's site and know that they are collecting the money, not thier pimp. I have no problem paying for talent, but I do have a problem paying a promoter. Why don't more artists try to distribute music this way?
Until that day comes I will just dust off the tape recorder and rip from the radio, old school. XM + Recorder = Mad beats.
