| very entertaining!!!! this is a great point for talented artist to get out to the masses. its a shit point in a sense because everyone is now an artist and talent is now harder to come out and shine. 2 many roaches for 1 peice of bread |

| Because Radio and music tv plug bland music, kids should be listening to new order, grizzly bear, radiohead, primal scream, the shins, mars volta, the pipettes, if you want rock the darkness, queens of the stone age, kings of leon, creative music not the rubbish they play now days ..good riddance to the music industry i say! they need an overhaul |
| Its not about the ... ( 3 months ago by 2brave2handle) |
| Its not about the music, its about being safe and promoting cheese, good riddance to the corporate executives that continue to plug Akon, overly-commercial R&B with no message, they dont care about art or music, its about the mula, they will only regain respect by doing a 360 and promoting art, respect to great artists will warrant respect by the fans and perhaps bringing down the price of Albums |
| Start! selling art ... ( 3 months ago by 2brave2handle) |
| Start! selling art instead of an agenda, go watch some tony wilson videos, he started a label and was passionate about great music and creativity, I'll continue to steal music as a middle finger to the industry and i'll buy the albums i really want as a fan of music ... the industry's reputations is as bad as you could imagine because it seems to be run by brainless uneducated money grubbers |
| Stop repeating the ... ( 3 months ago by 2brave2handle) |
| Stop repeating the same songs on radio, i swear thes corporations are run by monkeys, start taking more risks ... the 90's at the very least plugged some great bands as well as some of the cheese, a mix of both ..people are getting bored of the bland music being promoted another reason why sales are down and people download to find better music |

| to summarise, the wrong people are running the major labels, i believe the interview process should be targeted for people with a background in marketing along with a knowledge of great music otherwise go look for another job .. |
| And they still ... ( 3 months ago by royalsteven) |
| And they still wonder why? Cd prices were getting so ridicously high that the mp3 was needed. And yes i was more relieved then anything else. I still buy my cd's but from amazon. I mean 15 euro's for a 3-song cd-single, 22 euro's for a cd? No. It's also sad how commercial stuff sells and the best underground music doesn't sell because it's not marketed right. For instance in '98 Gangstarr's Moment of truth, a classic, barely sold 50.000 in USA, black eyed peas sells couple milllion. It's sad. |
| Yeah i bet your ... ( 3 months ago by royalsteven) |
| Yeah i bet your music gets a lot more attention on the net then in the store. A lot more chance of sales too. The net's a blessing for the industry. |
| Well let's say ... ( 3 months ago by royalsteven) |
| Well let's say artists get about 50 cents from every cd sale. Now when they sell one song from i-tunes. How much money well they get? 0.01 cents? Maybe selling cd's isn't so bad at all for the musician. |

| With programs like limewire music is basicly free nowadays. since people want everything free including myself CDs are out of the picture. I haven't bought a cd since 2001 because of limewire. |

| i aint gonna lie.. i download my music..and i hate the music industry and most mainstream rappers.. its like they put a good beat and bullshit lyrics.lyrics dat really dont send out a message..thats why i only buy underground mixtapes and cd's and 90's music like az,pun,nas.etc.. i miss the 90's |

| The looser is gonna be those 4 major labels. First off..they think they can fool people with easy melodies and lyrics which a five yr old can remember after one take. The power is going to independent labels and the artist mainly, because they are more #######..ok am not giving more secrets:)Pay me.hahaha |

| It's easy to understand why the music industry suffers. The music executives in the 60's and 70's were old sigar-smoking men who didn't know shit about pop-music and realeased things people wanted to hear. Now there is all these young people who only puts out the music they like, and think other people like. And now as the cd-sales decline they put out "easy listening" songs and hip-hop that is excellent to use as ringtones. But piracy can be blamed also to some extent. |

| The illegal AND legal downloads markets have killed CD sales. I don't like that. Now any retard can make a song and get famous - it was much better when artists had to work and produce a whole album of good music. It was a type of quality control. Now we get wall to wall crap. |

| There was music before the RIAA there will be music after the RIAA. I don't understand why everyone feels sry for the people that capitalize on other peoples talent. Thank God there is no PIAA for the painters or WIAA for writers. Capital and art should never be used in the same sentence, cause although people make livings doing it; it should never be the reason to create art, and frankly it has gotten a$inine, Artist in other art forms rarely have huge mansions and their own Plane. |
