iTunes and Artists
I'm doing a web site in my web design class about whether or not iTunes will discourage artists to create new albums, since you can buy just one song instead of the whole deal.
I looked things up on google, but I can't find any websites or blogs discussing the issue. If anyone can find a site, i would greatly appreciate it.
Or, if anyone wants to give their opinion on this, that'd be great too. Thanks!

Maybe give some free advice about: Internet & Web Design?
I personally don't think it will. Artists are human & humans are greedy most of the time. Artists need to make money as well, even if they are wealthy. I think that even though CDS aren't being boughten, artists will always make profits, even through iTunes. If major artists stop making new albums, there are so many people in the world that want to be famous, so they'll take over & make new albums. It's kind of like a cycle. If one artist stops making albums, a new artist will come in & make them. Everyone wants to be wealthy & many people want to be celebrities. I searched google & could not find anything on the topic. I think that shows that there probably isn't a chance of that happening. If there was, people would be talking about it & it definately would be on google.
-hope that helped!♥

I see what you mean. I mean if we go to a shop, then yeah, we will buy the whole album..but on iTunes we end up choosing maybe four songs off the album. But then again iTunes is used by so many people now that the artist still benefits from it. And I've stopped using iTunes because the song quality is better if you buy the CD yourself. Music from iTunes sounds flat.
