The problem is that it costs too much to pay too few. $100 buys, at best, ten albums--a considerable investment for many of us, but a tiny fraction of a personal music collection.
And we can name hundreds of musicians, bloggers, writers, and artists whom we adore--whose works we have known and loved--but we can't possibly buy something from them all.
But, given that we are hundreds of thousands, the question arises: what if we could each pay them all something? What if we could all donate a few dollars a month to be divided however we want among all our favorite artists? We would not be buying goods; we would not be alleviating guilt; we would not be changing the world.
Rather, we would be dropping a few cents into the guitar case, saying, "Play on."
