Wall of Mouths

Man, me no likey any of those there, trust me.

I was trying to make a point. And the point is that people are buying to matter what lables are trying to make you belive in.

Try to understand that 12 years ago 10 millions was the top. And there was no shareware in 1994! Nowadays 15 mils is the roof. Linkin Pork set it. So whos losing? I cannot see any losses here. Its only growing.

They are not losing shit, those lables that shout the most.

I do believe that people that like the product will buy it. Theres nothing ethical in it. Its common sense.

Its all true. But the point i was making is that none of record lables is losing those huge sums they are claiming. People are still buying. And those who have gigabytes of mp3s are not buyers. They never were and never will never be ones if you take kazaa, bt or other share opportunity from them.

And man, sales are still huge. Take a look at Linkin Park, Eminem, 50cent.

Music quality in my understanding is not something that everyone like. Labels should be out there looking for something interesting to publish and put on tv. When 9 out of 10 videos on MTVE sound the same its not quality releases to me.

As for kids, do you really want those poor bastards to spend their small pocket money on records? If those records are really they’ll buy them later on as they grow up, like i did. If that shit they are listening to is another Spears/Aguilera/BoyFuckingZone crap - they deserve to be played on CD-R and forgotten afterwards. I’d rather see those youngsters spend their money on ice-cream. Cause SONY Music and other corporate “music” must die.

Its actually can be seen really clear on T? example.

Where are all pop fucking stars when the hype surrounding them is gone? Retiring their asses off. In the mid 90s there was a hype aroung pop punk and T? was riding the wave. Whats happening now? They have a strong fanbase, people that charish them and their art. No more hundreds of thousands of records sales but they still are selling. Cause we love them and will keep consuming their products cause they fucking rock!

I dont know anyone of that type. The ones who like album or song or whatever will always want to have it in original.

Record labels a worried cause they cannot sell thier shit that easy anymore. The hype doesnt work anymore when people have time to listen and think about cd. Not piracy but music quality must be thier concern.

Pip: The way i see it no one robs anyone. Think about it. Ask yourself a question: “Would’ve that prick with 1000GB of mp3s bought the same amount of legal CDs?” I think no way.
Nirvana sold 10 million copies of their Nevermind album back in 1994 and they were on the top. No mp3s back then. In 2000s, mp3 era, Linkin Park go and sell 15-20 mils. Whoa? Where all those downloaded copies have gone?

All this record label bullshit about “losses” stays bullshit.

Those who download either do it to listen and decide whether to buy or not or NEVER buy any CD. You take mp3 from them - they wont give a shit. They’d rather listen to radio.
