Most young european artists have exactly this attitude. CD costs €20 and the musicians not even make €1 from every sail, more like 50 cents.

Current day artistst see there CD's more as a marketing attribute and make most of the money from Merchandise, live performancess and advertisments.

Most young rock musicians loath the record companies.


Even better, when young poluar dutch musicians where asked how many of their MP3 collection they actually payed for... most answered: none.

The current buiseness model has been cought by time...


Keep in mind that there is one company worse then the reccord companies, that is apple. for every itune they sale they make 70 cents where the racord comapnie makes 29 cents and the musicians 1 cent... Now how is that fair? ... And thats exactly where Mister Jagger was talking about.
