What? Read some more man!!! And do some math! for every CD sold, the artist (including the bigtime players) gets LESS-THAN $1. Did you understand that? That's an 20:1 ratio!!! The bigtime artist then has to use that 1/20th to make videos, pay studio costs pay their mgrs. and etc. Where the hell is the rest of that 20:1 ratio? It went to the people that are behind the RIAA. If you want to truly support the artists (big & small), the traditional biz-model is NOT the way to do it. Jeezzzz some of you guys are walking around with wool over the eyes!!! Wake up and think for yourselves!
