- The problem with the music industry is the uneven distribution of wealth: some artists have the backing of the majors who have decades' worth of copyrights to fund their marketing. This essentially chokes the independents, who don't even get a chance.
We are better off without the next U2, Kiss or The Beatles!! Let the bands compete based on the quality of their music!

- Quality is completely an opinion so that won't work.

- Good on Kiss - lots of artists stay silent because of the backlash from the illegal downloading community - surely it is time for some regulation to slow down rampant piracy on the internet.

- Couldn't agree more with vnbird
