"I think your premise is wrong. Thanks to the same internet you think will destroy music, good jokes are emailed to millions of people in a matter of days. What do you think will happen when good music is discovered by some "average guy" in a bar in Maple Valley, Washington. He sends it to everyone he knows and the next thing you know, the whole world knows about it. "
the problem with that, is although it shares the music faster... who gets paid to make music? musicians live off the royalties. take away the money, and the only thing they do is make it for the love of it; which, although honourable, gives no reason for any musician to share the music, because it then becomes a waste of time and a hassle.
