The Future of Music?

Music fans aren't just consumers anymore... they are tastemakers, music distributors and even collaborators with artists. How does this impact artists' careers? Will anyone get paid for making music anymore? How does this up the ante for concerts and festivals? Is touring and playing out 200 times a year the future of music?

Visit WHYY's Philadelphia Studios on Friday, May 20th as Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot, hosts of the nationally distributed rock 'n' roll talk show Sound Opinions, discuss the impact of the unprecedented changes in the new music world.
