There's touring and merchandise and the record company pay them for making a record? so no. But for young musicians who start out, it must make getting successful a bit more difficult? then again, if people get to hear their music through download/myspace/online streaming, get into the music, then they'll buy tickets for the show.. |

If they're downloading for free, who's to say they're going to spend money on a show? |

If you're really into the music, you'll buy tickets for a gig.
I was thinking of Arctic Monkeys.. They gave way their music online, to collect a fan base, then look what happened to them, headliners of Leeds/Reading with their 3rd album coming out. |

If I'm not, or I'm just remotely interested, then I'll download it. |

I also don't always download for free, there is a paywebsite called amiestreet.com that has a good share of Independent bands up for download at far cheaper rates than anywhere else. Usually somewhere between free and $5.00 for an entire CD at 320 kb/s. I wrote an article two weeks ago for the MB Zine about downloading music and how if anything it's opened the door for a lot of new artists. |
