As if the music industry, an industry I dearly love, isn't shit already, now congress wants to make it even worse. I don't see how they justify the current streaming deals or how they are even legal. They certainly aren't fair. It seems that congress is solely concerned with the profits of distributors and couldn't give a rat's ass about the livelihood of all the musicians who create this music. Extending copyright is just another example of how wrong congress is on this issue. At this point, I don't even know what to say. Musicians had a chance to ditch the so-called record labels, yet they seemingly decided to trade them in for even shittier deals with the likes of Spotify and Pandora. And somehow it got codified into law. It's amazing to me that there are still musicians producing music for a living. I do not see this profession lasting much longer as a viable profession, except for the most popular, biggest artists. In other words, these idiotic copyright laws that are supposed to incentivize creation have essentially ended the aspirations of most professional musicians. Ironic that it was claimed that piracy would do this. From a musician's standpoint, however, what is the difference between piracy and Spotify when both generate a revenue stream asymptotical to zero?
