Re: RIAA or no RIAA?

If it were a great idea to distribute free music, why don't the artists do it? On ITunes there are free downloads every week that are legal. That is one way of getting your music out there. If the artists want to give their music away for free they will but they know if they do that they might end up at Walmart as greeters instead of touring, making money.
Well actually, there are alot of musicians that do give their music away for free. Take a look at Ampcast and MP3 Unsigned. Those are DJs and artists that produce music in supportive of free media and are not greedy enough to charge for their productions.

Most of these artists make their money from live performances and leave recorded music open for all to enjoy.
