English term or phrase: ose what little income they could expect
. The artists that find it easiest to walk away are those that are already highly successful, compounding the problem still further. Why? Because the likes of XXX and XXX can afford to give their music away as a cheap promotional gimmick in order to create publicity for their respective machines. They get noticed for doing so and benefit in other areas. So with everyone now expecting free music, all the other artists lose what little income they could expect from record sales, even though the love and money spent producing their product hasn't changed.
