Has iTunes Improved or Worsened the Music Industry? |

When music piracy was in its greatest heat with Napster allowing any college kid with an Internet connection to download a lifetimes worth of music, the industry was looking for a way to capitalize on peoples desire for fast music downloads. We here at Wiser-Rocker pose the following question to you:
Has iTunes Improved or Worsened the Music Industry? Sure, they may have sold a few billion songs to date but at what expense? Is the album dead? Do we now live in a culture which is happy with one hit wonder artists and do not delve deeper into records anymore?
On the other hand, do you think more music, and thus more artists are exposed in this fashion than ever before? What do you think?
