kudos:2 | Music has declined...teens are the newest tartgets Would it be safe to say that the record companies are primarily targeting the 8-13 year old age group when it comes to bringing in new artists. I mean you go to any of these pop artists concerts and it's all little kids, exactly what these music companies are aiming for. It's basically instant gratification for the record labels. Make some big bucks, move on to the next thing. I believe that less time and energy is being invested in producing long term, quality artists who target all groups.
I personally bought a Dixie Chicks CD for my girlfriend a year ago, but beyond that I will not buy a CD for $18.00. It is so true that, stated by others here, there is only one good sound on any given album and the rest is garbage (there's always exceptions to this!).
On the other hand I have never used Morpheus, Kazaa or Napster, but rather in my opinion a far better way to obtain music.
Just some of my thoughts.
Take care,
LPP |

Just remember its the parents that have to pay for the CDs and concert tickets not them. If I had someone else paying the bills I would have a T3 line at $3000 a month instead of Adelphia at $42.

kudos:2 | I agree parents have to pay, but the advertising campaigns of the pop stars are targeting the kids and the kids these days are getting what they want. |

| Dang Nabbit, quit downloading my garn-doll music, thanks to all you dumb-dumbs Im living in a trailor with my ex-wife kim and her new boyfriend, who happens to be an American Gladiator, and sometimes, I catch him looking at me, you know, LOOKING AT ME. SO dang nabbit, if you all want to keep enjoying my love ballads, you should stop downloading my darn-jeepers music.
