From these interviews, we have discovered that while artists have been affected negatively by loss of revenue for record companies, the digital music market has been mostly beneficial to them, as is evident in the pros and cons listed below.
Negative impact:
* Loss in financial support from record companies.
* Sound quality has been sacrificed for accessibility with digital downloads.
* Sentimental value of physical CD’s has become somewhat obsolete.
Positive impact:
* Widening of fan base.
* More recognition from overseas musical acts (e.g. SFK got to support Evanescence and David Bowie).
* People have immediate access to their music.
* The barrier between artists and fans is being broken down.
* Music should be for everyone, and now it is.
