I don’t download music anymore, but I’ll tell you what happened Mr Record-Company CEO. The world changed, the internet gave me a massive opportunity to sample some very precise musical tastes, very specific sub-genre niche music.

I haven’t got tons of cash, but I can be very careful what I spend it on now. I don’t have to buy your mass manufactured shite like Hannah Montana or Brittney, I can find “shops” on the net that allow me to buy South Korean Black Metal or Malaysian Death Metal, music so niche that these bands are lucky if they sell 500 copies of their albums, but the net means we cut you out Mr MoneyBags record company exec, I know my money is going straight to the artist.

Tough luck, the boat sailed you weren’t on it!

How know speak French? I search some informations for use Industry. No forum in French so it’s difficult to understand here.

Y’a pas de Frenchy ici? Quelqu’un sait parler FranÃ§ais? c’est just pour m’aider Ã utiliser le site Inductry. Je comprend rien.

Ciao

I gotta disagree with you there dude. Aussie music pumps out some really good shit. And I reckon a lot of it just boils down to musical taste anyways… each to his/her own.

does anybody else feel that the video is just meaningless? I mean if if you take it out of this context, it just sounds like a bunch of Australian music nobodies waffling unintelligently. what’s to get annoyed at in this? They all just come across as people who have a hard time with doing work of any sort – sort of slacker malaise – arse to this.

[quote comment="367717"]Jimmy Barnes is from Glasgow and played shit-holes till a few years ago. No wonder he’s big in Oz. No offence Aussies, but if this is your cream of the crop, your in shit street…[/quote]

Jimmy Barnes moved to Australia when he was 5, he is an Australian citizen. He has done all his singing in Aussie bands from Fraternity in 73 to Cold Chisel, the biggest Oz rock band of the 80’s. He has had 11 number 1 albums in Oz including 8 solo, unmatched by any other musician worldwide.
AND your an ill informed ass.

Not to mention: I do a good weeks work, I get paid for the weeks work, and its over.

An attorney does a weeks work and makes $5,000 – $10,000 dollars;

A programmer does a weeks work and makes $800 – $900.

A grasscutter does a weeks work and makes $200 – $300.

None of these guys get paid in perpetuity for their contribution to society.
I don’t think artists, musicians etc. should get special treatment.

Once again, it needs to be brought to their attention: piracy annoys artists, piracy hurts record companies, record companies exist only to enslave and abuse any and all who love music: from the Rolling Stone magazine website:

This breakdown of the cost of a typical major-label release by the independent market-research firm Almighty Institute of Music Retail shows where the money goes for a new album with a list price of $15.99.

$0.17 Musicians’ unions
$0.80 Packaging/manufacturing
$0.82 Publishing royalties
$0.80 Retail profit
$0.90 Distribution
$1.60 Artists’ royalties
$1.70 Label profit
$2.40 Marketing/promotion
$2.91 Label overhead
$3.89 Retail overhead

Jimmy Barnes is from Glasgow and played shit-holes till a few years ago. No wonder he’s big in Oz. No offence Aussies, but if this is your cream of the crop, your in shit street. I’ve just watched the video & most of these self-centered boring USA-Lite assholes are so gormlessly blind as too their own bullshit, well, it’s pretty unbeleivable. “I’ve been singin my own songs since I was 3 so it’s not like I wanna be famous!!!” ?? Jesus & Christ.
Again no offence to Aussies (ya mongrels!) but this is a VERY bad advert for your countries music scene. Fuck The System That Fucks You!
Even if you live in the outback and have songs, and are good, get it on the internet!!!
Love.

Music recording industry will crash, will collapse soon. there’s more reasons for it (besides what you have read) that I’m too shy to say .

I just watched the vid. I didn’t see him in it, and he isn’t listed in the contributors. Was the video re-edited? Why is he bitching? Just to be popular???

I go to school in Australia, and I haven’t seen or heard a thing about this. Seems to me the MIPI — who I also have never seen or heard of — is making this movie to make itself feel better about filesharing. Also, go Frenzal go!

Hey torrentfreakers,

I’m an Aussie myself, so…. as a nice F*$k you to the music industry, might I recommend you download Best of Powderfinger? Excellent, excellent rock.

Next, try a little Evermore. Sure, they’re from New Zealand, but hey, that’s Lord of the Rings territory!

Silverchair also have some great rock, as well as Jimmy Barnes.
