I wanted to follow this up with some history and fractal relation to another industry i am involved with.... The Music Industry.

It has taken a **** due to piracy issues and downloads.

The Music industry itself has lost around 18 billion dollars a year for the past for or five years due to piracy issues and digital downloads.

Instead of go with the customer demand, the market demand for free music, they have sued and brought legal charges against their very clientele.....retarded? yes.

Instead of getting creative and innovative with money streams they fought the wave and are LOOSING. BADLY.

this is why you have crappy artists making it big time...because the big record companies have to keep running their musical business model and re-fabricate the same old acts with different names.

Prince did a great job monetizing his music ina different way. He charged the normal price for his concert, and INCLUDED a FREE CD that scanned by soundscan and made the top of the charts on Billboard.

Radiohead asked for donations or whatever you wanted to pay for a disc on their website. you could have paid nothing...and still gotten a CD. They Made more money doing that then they would have just charging regular price.

Now granted, these are both well established acts who were around "before the fall" as it were.

Nowadays any act that wants to mke ANY sort of ripple in the collective sound wave and get recognition needs to look at their music as "Marketing."

free...giveaway.... marketing and include the cost of production in the business model AS marketing. Not as an investment which they expect a return on. The real product is their live performance, or merchandise, or ..... the other ways which i'm not about to reveal just yet as i am currently implementing them myself. But you will eventually see the results.

point is...our "creative" that is to say our artwork, interviews, videos, etc...is FREE. you cant OWN it. intellectual copyright is a thing of the past. WOOF WOOF. truth be told, it doesnt originate with you the artist ANYWAY. it is inspired and therefore belongs in the realm of belonging to the universe. and you cant own that any more than you can own a piece of land.

monkey minded humans think they can own land, and can justifying killing people because of it, but that's because their un-evolved. Original Peoples knew the truth. My people Knew the Truth. We are caretakers of land. We are partners and brothers and sisters of land.

our music exists without us to sing it, but we give it life in this world as parents. the beats born from the drum are living things, we give birth to them with our hearts. We dont own them. just as parents don't own their children but guide them so too is our music, our art, our videos, our interviews, our passions.

They belong to universe and we just care for them.

this is abundance and this is truth.

and when you step this way, you will be guided and cared for and your needs met for you to be able to do the work.

....and if your creative and innovative....you can live a rockstar lifestyle with a budget for tithing and vacationing bigger than most people make in a year....

WOOF!
