Should music be free? About that opinion...: napster

» curtbaild - napster

i love to use napster to find music i have never heard of from other countries. i also use it to listen to new artists so that i can judge whether or not i want to buy the cd. i am so sick of buying cds that SUCK and napster lets me find out whether or not i buy it. i am upset on both sides. its sucks that some musicians arent getting their money, but see how really is it the fault of napster? i think its a great way to learn about new artists, and because of napster, i have bought a whole bunch of new cds like coco lee and jinusean, which i probably would never have had the pleasure of knowing had it not been for napster. on the other hand, i am bitter. how much money do musicians make? and how much do they charge for their cds? the only way i ever buy damn 20 dollar cds is if their are worth my hard earned cash. I dont know how many times i have wasted money on cds that use as frisbees now. if anything, i think the artists and napster should solve this by letting it be used as a means of testing music and or putting up music that is not sold in stores.
