Music downloading

Sales
Top download charts because so many people are downloading now rather than the charts for CD's.
However albums are still selling well in shops due to fans that want to have the album and the feel of having an album. Also sometimes with albums the artists produce posters of themselves and letters where as on itunes the songs are the only things they get.

Technology
Anti-virus has made downloading music illegally a lot easier due to the fact that if a virus is detected the anti-virus sorts it out allowing the people to still download music.
Itunes is the in thing now since april the 28 2003, we use to have walkmans and cassetes but itune is alot easier, quicker and cheaper. We all have mp3 players and ipod now which are the new walkmans and cassetes.
The sales of blank CD's have been estimated to stop in the next few years due to there being a decrease in sales of them.
You tube is the new way to get see the music you like, if there is a song on you tube, people in this generation no longer walk to the shops to see if its on a CD, they type it into itunes where they can buy a song for roughly one pound nineteen. People are always looking for something for nothing. If not they also download music illegally using sites such as Lime wire, Frostwire, Youtube converter and 4shared. For the younger generation of today search engines and website like these are a lot easier to get onto and to use.
