I think streaming music is the greatest invention ever. I listen to music constantly, every day. It is much more cheaper to pay to stream music instead of paying for each individual song i want to listen to. I want to support the artists but i also want to support my wallet. Artists get less money but i feel like streaming sites are more readily accessible to most people. which in return cuts down on the amount of pirated music, which really hurts artists. I think its the better and safer idea in the long run for all participates involved.  1.99 a song is just ridiculous when i can pay 9.99 for every song i could possibly want to listen to for the rest of time.
