Heavy metal shows piracy is not killing music, offers new business model
http://j.mp/1eMVnjA (Death Metal Underground)
"Despite being extensively pirated worldwide, Iron Maiden have managed
to put themselves in the 10-20m for 2012. This means that despite the
growing popularity of the band on social media, and the extensive and
pervasive torrent downloading of the band's music, books and movies,
the band is turning a profit. This is in defiance of the past business
model, and the idea that piracy is killing music. In fact, piracy
seems to be saving music in Iron Maiden's case."

from "Death Metal Underground."
