How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I believe it allows artists to be more available publicly, and provides artists exposure and a venue they may never obtain or be able to obtain otherwise, with venues such as indie radio stations artists can obtain air play otherwise unavalble in the past
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Absolutley
