Am I the only one that thinks the music business has been sick for a long time, like since it started?
It seems like all we heard about in the 80's was those revelations of how the record companies had for years rip off the artists and manipulated the system, since the beginning of the industry. All so they could ride in limos and wield their power over the talent that made the money for them. It seems like the independent industry that kicked up in the 90's was the beginning of the market correction and with the advent of the internet and technology, the listeners completed this market correction. Now those limo riding, champagne drinking, power hording execs are reluctant to let it all go and they blame Apple for it. I for one am glad to be paying for less executive limos. And I'm sorry to see that Hollywood is the same way.
