Question by mike b: Real Music Isn’t About Money. Don’t side with the RIAA?
I know we have all been conditioned to believe that music = loads of money and fame for the artist and record company. I know some of you think that if the industry doesn’t make money.. music will cease to exist. Well I hate to inform you that recorded music is a fairly new thing in the course of human history and music was around far far far longer than these greedy corp record labels. Music used to be about feeling and mood and not about greed. Composers from days before records made their living playing to a live audience. That’s how artist should make their bread and butter. Everything else should be promotion for their performances.
You want the RIAA to fall into it’s rightful grave? It’s easy to get rid of these bastxrds. Just stop spending your money on major label bands/groups… and stop downloading their music. Don’t give them a reason to exist. Fxxk big record companies! Talent is around you not just on TV and Radio. Support local and independent artist.
Best answer:
Answer by Gabi
I’m all for supporting local talent, but most of the music I like happens to be part of a major label or becomes part of a major label eventually. Even local and independant artists will jump at the chance to sign a major record deal …
