• Good point, but...
  I'm all for public access to art and music and I do believe that the current music industry is flawed, however I believe that it should not be done away with. The problem is that there is inadequate funding to support musicians in what they do, and so the industry exists (or SHOULD exist) for the purpose of enabling musicians to continue their work without financial pressure.
  
  I am fully aware that the current industry really doesn't even pay the musicians that well, and that is what needs to be changed, but if there were no compensation for musicians (or any other type of srtist), then think of how many fewer musicians would exist.
  
  Again, I am all for free access to music, but there does need to be a support system for the artists.
