Over the years the Internet, and social media, have made life easier. By just the click of a mouse you can find just about anything. However, are certain things becoming too easy? Titus Thomson, a bite blogger, seems to think that social media is changing the music industry. In his blog he goes on the explain that social media completely changed the popularity of his brother's band. Nowadays anyone can make tracks in the comfort of their own home and use any, and all, forms of social media to get buzz generated. From Facebook to personal Web sites, the Internet has made talent scouts job basically obsolete.
This was extremely interesting to me. I love music, but it makes me think how much longer will music stay timeless if it's something everyone can do. While it's awesome that musicians have a new outlet to make themselves heard, what about those who shouldn't be heard? Soon it wont be such a big deal to make it to the "Big Time" when all you have to do is turn on your computer and click "upload".
