Sounds like "the first one is free!".  Hey, that kind of marketing works for getting kids hooked on drugs, why not music?

 

People may make music in order for others to hear it, but without the money the music will stop.  If there was no money, where would Creed be?  Here's a line for a song: "Would you like fries with that?"

I'm not saying that Metallica's music isn't good anymore, that hasn't changed. I just don't like their attitudes about the whole thing.  Music isn't about the money, its about getting it out to everybody. If I was an artist, it would make me happy that my music was out there for people to download, it will bring new fans that will go out and buy the music...like I said before I am a  downloading fool, but I go for the unreleased, hard to find stuff, imports, acoustics, etc. And I love cd's way too much, I will always buy them.
