An article on the BBC
'Elbow frontman Guy Garvey says the way artists are paid for audio streams is "threatening the future of music".
"That sounds very dramatic," he told MPs, "but if musicians can't afford to pay the rent... we haven't got tomorrow's music in place."'

I'm always amazed at the way that composers and musicians are screwed over by the music industry because I have never and will never listen to music because of the industry but because of the appeal of composers and performers. This is no doubt true for most if not all music lovers. As such all rights should belong to the composers and performers of music with their getting the vast majority of all gross profits from the various methods of distribution past, present, or future.
