Before the music dies
This is a fantastic looking documentary consisting of many musicians and industry types taking about the problems that the record industry is facing.
That term 'record industry' was used by one of the people featured in the film and describes the situation perfectly.
The 'record' industry is involved primarily with the promotion and disemmination of 'hits' of mainstream music. They take no action that will adversly affect their bottom line.
The 'music' industry is people who actually care about music. These people might not make a whole load of money, but they generally tend to look after their own, promote talent above saleability (well...) and generally are my last hope for the generation of new music I will want to listen to in the future.
Can't wait until the film comes out.
