This is what the music industry is going to face soon. In the near future there will be a day when music isn't created by people looking for fame and money. They'll be doing it because they love what they do.

People who love what they do will do it for free, and even more so if it's enjoyed by others.
And where wil they get all the time to do this because they'll have to have REAL jobs. Oh and you do realize that studio time is REALLY fucking expensive. So is the equipment. So where are they going to get the money to make all this FREE music for you to enjoy? Perhaps they just get some used equipment from a yard sale and record it in their garage. That'll sound good. EVERY artist hopes to make a livng at doing their art. This notion that artists just want to do their shit for free is a fantasy. Or an excuse for freeloaders to not compensate them.
