Trent Reznor knows music. And has been an innovator. I guess you can say he has been on the forward edge of music for many years. He has thrown in his lot with Apple Music, and the way he describes it does sound quite exciting.
Hoping this opens a new era for music and musicians. Like I said, I still love the "old model" - buy a vinyl record, or CD, and band t-shirt, go to concerts, support a band. But the new paid streaming model where the global catalog of songs is available on your phone or computer makes a lot of sense too.
Free music just never made sense for the people who make the music. "Music is my entire life. It's the only thing I've been good at. I love it." - Trent Reznor
