The Music industry.. They are the ones that get your music and sell it. We upload our songs and get promises, contracts, and big sells. then we wait for our money, and we wait for our money and we wait for our money, and we wait for our money. Then we get told that we sold nothing and they can prove it with the sell report that they give us. Lets make some laws that make the internet follow some rules... First all reports to the Musican of sells most be ( by Law ) in harmony with the Credit Card Company reports of all sells. A credit card report most be issued in conjunction with all internet sells. The Credit Card Companies are the ones's that have the correct sales that occur on the internet. Make it mandatory that these reports to the musician that uploaded his songs are in line with the financial statements of earnings for the musician. Since the credit card Companies have the truth , then make it all avalable by barcode to the Musician of his song sales. Mandatory compliance to make the Credit Card Companies and internet music sales groups have no way of giving false or erronious financial reports to the Musician. Credit Card Companies, and internet Banks such as Paypal included. Free downloads of music , is not the problem, it only masks the internet in its real pirating. which is not paying the musician for the actual sells reported to the musician. The Musician is the one that's getting ripped off by everyone, and the laws should guarantee correct reports of sales...... the real Pirate. Mandatory disclosure to the BarCode, ISRC owner.

Hopefully they realize just what kind of rubbish their blob-wannabe manager is spewing and put a foot down on it otherwise I don't think that they're going to see many sales (outside of the offline fans) as they progress further into the memories of music rather than the makers of new music.

The gap between the haves and have nots is not only widening but the ratio of haves to have nots is getting smaller that is there are more and more poor people relative to the number of rich people. Money isn't enough for this scum they have to have control over our lives too. Was Bono born rich or was did he start out like every other musician just a high school punk who wanted to meet chicks? Does he not remember his roots or has alcohol completely pickled his brain? Does that much fame and fortune and money turn people into heartless zombies?
