Most of the time I don't feel sorry for the music industry, but you have to wonder how it can continue in the future with so many things available for free online.
TRUE ! It is in fact disappearing right in front of our eyes. Tower Records: Gone, Many small Music Stores: Gone or barely hanging in there. Some would say that they had their day - BUT . . .technology has made it possible for the powerful to dominate the internet. The sad part about all of the freebies available is that this is probably one of the only industries affected by it in such a big way (possibly software bootleggers too). All of the smaller Record Labels are history, the remaining "Majors" have all been gobbled up...and there is no hope for a return to the way many of us remember it. Technology is good - but some things suffer for it.
