Thats why music sharing is so big because people dont want to pay $20 for crap but the problem is music has become a visual medium. Which it was never intended to be. I watch with my wife, a cable channel that vh1 has and its all music from the 60's to 80's. Since there where no music videos in the 70's alot of it is live performances, the muscianship was so much higher but now a days most of them would never get a record deal.Ugly mother fuckers making great music. lol We watched BTO they kicked ass but today 4 fat guys with beards who look like truck drivers would never get a record deal.

Also once apon a time it was called stealing not sampling, George Harrison got sued and lost because My Sweet Lord sounded to close to "He's So fine". As far as Black music the days of Stevie Wonder and Prince are over lol , hiphop and rap killed musicianship, I would say the only current black group who might turn that around is Outkast.
