Money and Pirates and Music


oh my!

here's an interesting chart from
the United Kingdom, that puts the
raving of the Music Industry about
piracy and downloading and crime
and all that into another frame...





... it reads to me like the total amount
being spent on 'digital entertainment'
from 1999 to 2008 has nearly doubled
over 10 years - which is more than can
be said for people's wages.

... it also looks like games have been
where much of that increase in spending
has happened - which in my experience
is a zone where the primary consumers
are young people, who formerly were
the big buyers in terms on music.


...something to consider,
and the beat goes on....
