www.free-music-is-sweet.com

in some ways it would be awesome if music was free to download. then so many ore people would be able to afford to listen to music. on the other hand though, then the musicians that produce the music wouldn't really make a lot of money. no matter what the rules are, people are going to find a way to break them. even now, kids send each other songs through AIM, email, usb, burn cds, use downloaders like limewire and frostwire. 
sometimes i feel bad because if you think about it, there are only maybe 15 songs on a track. lets say you buy a cd for 20 dollars. the musicican is only making maybe .75 a song. and that takes time to produce each song. so it's really unfair to them.
but i mean, one dollar for a song on itunes is pretty expensive once it starts to add up. and if its a bunch of kids who want music maybe they can't afford it. i think there needs to be some kind of compromise.
