However, the major labels needed to adapt to this new reality faster. They ignored the internet, thinking it would never catch on. They even sued companies that allowed illegal music downloading instead of embracing the latest technology and finding ways to monetize it. But the power of the internet cannot be ignored. Streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music have revolutionized how we consume music. We no longer need physical copies of albums; we can simply stream them online. This has led to a decline in CD sales, but it's not just due to illegal downloading. There are many socioeconomic reasons for this decline, including the convenience of streaming services and the rise of smartphones and MP3 players.
So, what can aspiring musicians and industry professionals learn from this? Embrace the power of the internet. Use it to your advantage to build your brand and connect with fans. Refrain from relying on the old distribution system; find new and innovative ways to get your music out there. And most importantly, don't give up control of your career to a major label. With the internet, you can make it on your own terms.
