How The Music Industry Been Affected by the Internet and
Digital Downloading? By Melody Rivera
Slide 3
Introduction The music industry has been affected by the
internet and digital downloading in many ways. We dont know the
exact answer to how its been affected but many people create
theories and ideas about it. Here are some ways that the music
industry has been negatively affected.
Slide 4
Its All About The Money! These days, CDs are way too expensive.
It would cost about $20 just for one single CD! Music on the
internet cost about $2, thats about $18 less! The internet has a
stronger advantage in sales because of its cheaper prices.
Slide 5
Let All Music Be Heard! Unfortunately, we dont hear every
single piece of music that is put out there for us. The creators of
these underrated musical pieces dont have enough money to let their
songs become viral whether its on the radio or on TV. Most of these
creators probably turn to the internet where they can get help to
release their music and earn some fans who appreciate them.
Slide 6
Everyone is a Critic! We can all agree that we have different
tastes, especially in music. CDs individually cover one genre of
music whether its Pop, Hip-hop, Rock, etc. However, people want to
own different types of music all at the same time. The solution to
these people would be most likely to download the songs their
looking for.
Slide 7
Home Sweet Home We hate to admit it, but we can all be lazy
from time to time. Sometimes, instead of going to the store to buy
some CDs, we would rather prefer to just digitally download some
songs off the internet. We just dont feel like putting effort into
things that take time and include leaving home. Home is where the
heart is so this is very understandable.
Slide 8
Conclusion These are the many ways the music industry has been
negatively affected by the internet and digital downloading. As you
can see, the internet definitely has more power then the music
industry. Is this a good thing may you ask? There could be many
answers to this question but as of now, we can give our opinions
and wait for what the future has in store for us to seek an
answer.
