File-sharing certainly does have it's advantages. Ease of making mixes and hearing new artists. I wouldn't be a Muse fan if it weren't for file-sharing. That doesn't change the fact that file-sharing is flushing the quality of the industry and the industry itself down the tubes.

And that's why, more and more, you'll start paying hundreds of dollars to see bands you'd think you'd only have to pay $50 for. They have to make money somehow. Frankly, I'd rather just buy the music.
