All I have to say is that the age of music started to decline at the end of the jazz era.

I am looking for a help and don’t know where to, so I’m using your link…sorry.
yesterday, in the middle of listening to radio station KTU /New York/, the brodcasting was interupted by another radio station-Russian brodcasting FM 87.9 and since that moment that is all I can listen to..It overtook the whole system.
Can you suggest what to do, where to turn to report it or seek a help?

Perhaps it’s not just that the music is crap, but more that those shows reveal just what a sham and marketing scam 75% of the business is and we’ve all got a bit wiser as a result. I can’t imagine many people have been downloading pirate copies of Casey Donovan albums. This is exemplified by the fact that the independent labels doubled their album sales.

If it’s good and people are able to download it easily and legally, then they will. Has the music industry learned nothing from the iTunes Music Store? The kind of attitude ARIA are showing only drives people away from legitimate music because they resent the greed.

I can sympathise with the spam issue, so this is an excerpt from my own blog reference to your piece (rather than a trackback).

I think the fact that most music pretty much blows goats these days, the music industry should be real happy that they’ve only lost that much in sales.
oh did they mention how much they made from music dvd’s and ring tones? didn’t think so. just keep concentrating on the negative and find excuses for their poor marketing and shithouse, in your face products they keep trying to push.
