I find the opposing views interesting too, but havn't actually decided on my own view. Any consumer would like to try something before they buy it. I rent ps2 videogames for this reason... most of them suck. It consts 7 bucks to rent a game though. This is high I guess, but I suppose it would be fair to have some sort of low try before you buy price for music. I'd probably only have to buy 3 tracks from each artist before I knew if I'd be interested in any more of their material anyway. If it was 25 cents a track, that wouldn't be a big deal. It would be great if artists could avoid middlemen and get a large chunk of this "rental" profit.

that's interesting. it shows that he made £0.86 per copy of vatican nitez he sold. since the price of vatican nitez is about £11.00 that means he gets about 8% of the album sales.
that kinda sux. this is why you should go to the shows and buy the cd's and t-shirts there.
