I also love how this thread when on track is centered around "making a living" from music when there are so many other facets at play. If "the album is on it's way out" (which I don't believe for one single second) and there were no more independent record shops or great looking records and everything was reduced to a blogspot link and a jpg image represent the cover, well that would be pretty depressing, no? But according to the "new model" you'd get a cool t-shirt or a button? not that I think that would ever actually happen but that's probably the worst reality for music I've ever heard.......
I think I'll go record shopping today, and I think I'll quit rolling my eyes at the idea of a fake holiday like record store day.........
