David Bryne Sticks It To The Man
At least week's SXSW festival, David Bryne spoke about changes he would like to see in the music industry.
"But first, he said, labels will have to remove their digital rights management (DRM) copyright-control technology. He said he buys most of his music online via eMusic, or obtains it illegally, due to the file constraints on files sold on iTunes."
"An audience member suggested that such an idea was depressing, largely due to the decreased sound quality of a digital download.
"`It's kind of sad,' Byrne said, `but I think of it as a boost for live music. As long as it doesn't get to be too horrible -- the sound quality -- they'll go for convenience and accessibility. He added, `It doesn't have to sound good to move people.'"
There's more, but those where my favorite parts.
Nice job keepin' it real David Bryne.
