The industry still has a major problem to deal with – what on earth makes them think anyone would pay a monthly subscription for music?

Their deal is perfectly reasonable, but since we, the consumers, have been treated so unreasonably, what gives the industry any right to demand us to be ‘fair’ now?

Its time to accept that nobody (or at least very few people) will ever pay for music again. Start providing music for free, and make money from concerts and merchandise – that, is the way forward – to be honest it really doesnt matter what the industry does, its not like anyone is giving them a choice.
