An Inconvenient Truth: Music business
With a lot of music going viral in this age, the argument is often brought up about how it is ruining the music business. I disagree, however. When music is easier to access and right at your fingertips, you are more inclined to listen to it which could lead to many things, say, seeing the band or artist in concert (which you pay for, need I remind you). There is a much larger audience of listeners and potential listeners on the internet than anywhere else. If you could download something for free, why would you buy the c.d.? I, for one, think c.d.s should stop being made if they do become too costly and if sales drop increasingly. Sure you'll have it forever, but why would you waste $10+ for something you will sync into iTunes and listen to on your iPod? The music business is doing just fine for now and should focus on utilizing the internet as a valid form of promotion.
