I impose an evolution of value '
The advent and onslaught of net-labels releasing
music under creative commons, is a result of the
control devices of copyright and record labels.
I have no sympathy for the Artist in a commercial
sense. We can not protect the value of music
without re-establishing what this value is by
destroying it.
Several things are happening for me, while
discovering net-labels, and creative commons.
I am finding excellent music that makes me question
the value of the music I pay for. In a dual process
I am overwhelmed by content and desire a external
filter that will condition my access to the music.

The consumer receives the value.
The artist must create the value.
The 'company' lose their dictation of value.

I do not suggest that this is an easy process, however
it is necessary for progression.
A strong symbol of this working is Vladislay Delay.
On their website, they release some MP3 for free, they
also promote material for sale, and they have provided
a series of samples which they encourage you to steal!

We can acknowledge the process and define its path.
This is the evolution of value'
How is the artist not a martyr?
