여러분 나라에서도 가수들이 인터넷의 발전으로 피해를 보고 있나요?
(Are singers in your country getting damage from the development of the Internet?)

네, 미국 음악 산업은 불법 다운로드 때문에 피해 많이 본다고 해요. 그러나 또 따른 방면이 있죠. 블로그나 음악 공유통해 유명 되는 음악가있어요. 그러다가 인터넷으로 판매된 음악은 음반에 비해서 가수가 받는 수입 부분은 더 크죠.

저는 언젠가 들을 만한 음악이 나오면 사려고 애 써요. 하지만 음악가들은 좋은 돈을 벌 수 있는 방법을 찾았으니까 아직 음악으로 먹고 살 수 있어서 좋아요. 요즘은 사람들이 $0.99을 내는 대신에 불법 다운로드로 음악을 듣는데도 왠지 $5/~4000원짜리 컬러링을 자주 구입해요. 그래서 그런지 요즘도 음악으로 먹고 살 수 있죠!

그런데 앞으로도 음반 시장의 판매하는 방법들이 바뀌는 기대가 돼요.
