This interview contained a couple of different questions, all of which pertained to music. The first question was "Do you think streaming will overtake mp3 purchasing?" The interviewee said that he thinks it will because it's so much easier. To purchase mp3s, you have to download the music and it takes a long time. The next question is "Why is music less political today than it was in the 1960s?" The interviewee postulated that there was perhaps more to complain about back then,or at least it seemed that way to the common American as opposed to now. Students today also don't care as much about politics. He suggests that political issues aren't as big of talking points to young people as they were to young people in the 1960s. The last question was "is music worth more than what we currently pay?" The interviewee started out by mentioning how a lot of big musicians talk about pirating music and how we shouldn't do it. He says that they make a lot of money and pirating isn't going to hurt them that much and we do overpay for their music cds anyway. He says if he likes the artist, he will buy it anyway to support them.
Overall, i think this was a fun interview. We learned new perspectives by sharing our answers.
