If you want to hear a band, go see them and/or buy a fuckin' CD. Anything above and beyond that (like airplay - Radio or otherwise) is a bonus. People feel entitled to get everything for free. Are you on welfare? If bands want to share their own intellectual property via a download or streaming audio, that's their decision, not ours. That being said, the industry is DEAD, and anyone thinking they can make a reasonable living from being a recording musician is deluded thanks to "filesharing" thieves. That being said, I can't think of a single thing on that label I want to hear anyway. Wahh. Artists are not entitled to compensation for work they release, getting paid is a bonus. If you think you're entitled to get paid for producing something that only has subjective use-value then you're probably just a shitty artists. People whining about declining record sales are just like people who whined about declining sheet music sales when radio and recordings came along. This is capitalism: ADAPT OR SHUT THE FUCK UP.
