A good 25% of the artists out there have invested enough of their time, energy and most likely money so that they have become popular using good old fashioned marketing, and the other 75%...well...haven't.<br /><br />This means that the 25% successful musicians should stop investing needlessly in the music business and just get on with the other 75% that just post it for free on-line...in hopes that they will like it and come and buy the real thing.<br /><br />You know, if that is the model, then I'm all for it. But as long as someone feels that something is worth something and the market agrees, I don't see why they shouldn't charge for it.<br /><br />I still don't see this as justification for stealing.Shawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12093823138737535996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3599452548077943366.post-66038227110185343952009-04-29T11:51:00.000-03:002009-04-29T11:51:00.000-03:00I couldn't have said it any better (please read):<br /><br /><A HREF="http://torrentfreak.com/why-pirates-buy-more-music-and-music-labels-fail-090428/" REL="nofollow"> http://torrentfreak.com/why-pirates-buy-more-music-and-music-labels-fail-090428/</A>Doooh_headhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08345124942568529936noreply@blogger.com
