1. Taxing music
2. The album going out of style
3. Music being bought online
4. Obtaining music via programs such as Lime wire, illegal downloading, in other words
5. Less money for music labels
6. Performing live music becoming more necessary to sell albums and other band merchandise.
7. Revenue from music labels going to YouTube, Imeem, We7, Nokia, etc.
8. Music has went from being known as a product to a service
Either get rid of albums altogether, or disable downloading and/or buying of music via computer/mobile device, or completely switch to playing live, and stop taxing music!!!

You know maybe Metallica was on to something when they took Napster to court. The internet is killing the music industry. Sales are way down now. Many bands aren't even trying to stop the phenomenon and are opening up their newest songs on their myspace pages or online music stores. Even bands like Radiohead that have fought to stand against any sort of industry are going almost exclusively online. I like your list. You really put some thought into this post.
