@fstateaudio but is it really musicians or is it music publishers that tell there artists (because they really own 'em) you want to get payed? Do this! Anyways the music industry lost their right to exist with the end of physical media.

@TheOneDoc I'm talking about things I've seen from other independent musicians, but I have little doubt that the environment you describe has seeped into people's minds, if that makes sense. The days of physical media were only better in the sense that listeners didn't have to pay what amounts to recurring rental fees and weren't serving so much as sources of data to be sold, but the industry has always been a system of exploitation.
