Like I said, people have actually been tricked into thinking Spotify is a good thing for the industry.

- smsm42 13y agoIndustry seems to be doing pretty good. But why should I even care about "the industry"? I can get why should I care about the artists, but "the industry" is just the means to the goal of getting music, if there would be some other means that gets the same result - who cares if "the industry" disappears?
- anigbrowl 13y agoThe industry also provides marketing, administrative, and editorial services that are extremely valuable. Artists aren't necessarily good at self-promotion, accountancy, sound engineering etc. etc. Bands usually have managers because they're good at making music, not tour management and so on.

- smsm42 13y agoThere already is advertising, accounting and copywriting industry, they're not going anywhere. So ability of musicians to hire advertiser, accountant or copywriter would not suffer if the thing we call "recording industry" ceases to exist.
