It posits some very important points and makes a lot of sense to me as an independent. In order to change the attitude of the general consumer public, we as artists, have to give them something more. Not just in video content, imagery, and other extras in tandem with the music, but also quality soundscapes and material. A song whose lyrics have some meat to them, some point of view, along with an infectious beat. At least, that's what I strive to do. Thank you for this Blog entry.

Ticket sales have reached an all-time high. So in general people are ready to pay for music. But the little files have become ubiquitous and can be picked up free in countless ways. Most people now prefer the on-the-go option. Concerning price, you can get a subscription to 40 DRM-free files per month for about €9 on eMusic.com. It’s a format thang!
