Home Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Yes, I don't follow you there.

"They pay Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, Apple and Microsoft, among others. Those companies have taken away the inept recording industry's business and are making billions by selling music without compensating musicians at all."

What is the basis of that claim? What music is Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile selling?

I don't think people expect free music when they buy a phone any more than they expect free CDs when they buy a CD player or free drinks when they buy a glass or free money when they open a bank account. True that mobile has become an important if not dominant format, but people don't expect to get all their stuff from Amazon for free just because they can use their phone for it.

Going back to my initial post, the issue isn't the streaming format, it's the price.
