Rock n Roll is dead as we used to know it. Napster and the Fans killed it with free downloads. Lars Ulric was a prophet, he saw the writing on the wall before all of us and was Vilified for it. The dream of getting a record contract and making it as a Mega Star are gone. Musicians have to find a way to hold on to their music and share it with the world without giving it away.
