Interesting post at TechCrunch. 50 Cent says file sharing is a concern, but that artists could still make a lot of money during their careers, if only the music industry would get a clue.

“The concerts are crowded and the industry must understand that they have to manage all the 360 degrees around an artist. They, (the industry), have to maximize their income from concerts and merchandise. It is the only way they can get their marketing money back.”
“The main problem is that the artists are not getting as much help developing as before
file-sharing. They are now learning to peddle ringtones, not records..They don’t understand the value of a perfect piece of art.”
