And that's simply what it is, like it or don't. "good" or no-body is going to share- a no-name band with a crappy song & no talent. Also, when/if you do make it big-- most of the Rich artists agree---- the record labels are going to rip you off a million times as much money as the file sharing public--- they do it-- by lying about how many copies of your material they actually SOLD- production cost-- everything. Live performance(ticket sales), merchandise, endorcements--- those are where the real money is at( and where you can keep a closer eye on the actual REVENUE. But non of this ever happens-- unless you get NOTICED-- that requires EXPOSURE---- people saying--- hey, have you heard THIS! Keep playing your small clubs-- doing your "Battle of the Bands" -- spending hours recording/burning your own "homemade" CD's to hand out- spend your pennies and dimes on Flyer's -- and time Stapling them to every telephone pole in town... and eventually You'll make enough door money to afford 8 hours in a real Studio and can cut a real demo or too-- something mastered with enough quality that the local radio station won't laugh at you for asking them to play it on the air. or you could upload a copy .mp3 quality-- and maybe---- it would spread like wildfire--- and suddenly-- there would be MILLIONS of people--- asking-- who's that? then some suit will see an chance to make some money off YOU--and come seek YOU out------ |
whats the difference between p2p and recording it off the radio like we used to back in the day. wait all day to hear that one song then push down the record button????

Doing my 2 cents worth to get this thread back on track, I believe "Latter Day Cowboy" by Collin Raye has a nice ring to it.
