Poll reveals fans' downloading and copying habits
Tue 17 Jun, 2008
I think music is evolving as a whole. We saw the emergance of gurilla gigs a few years ago, the re-emergance of DIY culture, warehouse raves becoming more popular again and so on. Not all of it is new, a lot has been done before but its goes to show that the way in which people view and interact with music will never go away, much of it was shocking at the time but now is just 'the way it is', downloading music is still quite new and it scares some people. Downloading music illegally is not such a problem really, people still buy cd's and people still pay for music on sites such as itunes. many people say they download songs first then buy the cd, it exposes people to far more bands than just listening to the radio and thats not to say the radio does not play good music,downloading is just quicker. Every year more bands emerge and have success and every year is always reffered to as 'a great year for music' ,downloading music helps keep up and coming bands alive. It's the rich successful bands who complain. On a lighter note, i recommend everyone watch the south park episode 'christian rock hard' and realise some things about illegal music downloads
