This trend needs to stop. Free kills any market, it doesn’t matter what the product is!!!

Beethoven for instance, as evidenced in his published letters, was very good at business, and always personally chased down the money he was owed. Not wanting to make money plays right into the hands of record companies, and now streaming companies like Spotify, who will be working very hard to give you as little of your hard won income as they can.

Some great points made here by people who I know put their entire being into what they do. It doesn’t point to easy conclusions. There are none. Regardless of what route is chosen to share music, it is tough.
