  • I think we should stop for a moment and consider the artist/s whose music you are listening to.

    If we don't buy their stuff they don't get paid, they don't get paid they stop making music. They stop making music then all we'll be left with is corporate mush pushed on us by multinationals.

    Listen to music whichever way you wish, vinyl, CD, Spotify whatever but please put your hand in your pocket at some stage.

    I know many many bands that have had to give up because making music and doing gigs became too costly for them.

    Thank you

    I found this excellent chart showing just how much or how little independent artists get when you buy their music in various ways.
