artists & the internet
“Artists, Musicians and the Internet: They have embraced the internet as a tool that helps them create, promote, and sell their work. However, they are divided about the impact and importance of free file-sharing and other copyright issues.” This is from the first large-scale surveys done by PEW Internet and American Life Project. It is interesting evidence of the importance of the internet, though it mostly focuses on musicians.
