: "the music industry is changing"
:
: Those five words sum it all up. Things are changing. File
: sharing/stealing has being going on for well over 10 years now.
: It is a reality that can not be stopped, otherwise it would have
: been stopped long ago. IE have the right idea to sell themselves
: in other ways. Record labels have not been able to branch out
: and make money in different ways. It is a shame.
:
: I don't know what the answer is. Perhaps record labels could
: branch out by signing artists to twofold contracts 1) recording,
: and 2) touring. In this case Century Media would manage both the
: album making AND the touring. This way the more the music gets
: out (either through old fashion sales or through
: sharing/stealing), the more the tours sell, and the more all
: parties make.
