Re: Does File-Sharing Really Hurt Bands?

Could go either way really. If it's an independent band that is capable of handling all aspects of their career, file sharing would benefit them. If it's a major label band that relies on the label to do everything it could hurt. Bands make their money on the road. Labels make their money mostly from record sales. If people don't buy a bands records the label might be inclined to release them. If the band is self sufficient they will benefit hopefully by higher revenues at the venues. I personally would prefer to buy shirts and CDs directly form the bands at the show as opposed to at a chain retailer.
