Music, same thing. The few thousand dollars it takes to rent a studio or whatever is no match for the couple of million the CD makes when it hits the stores.

independant artists? they still get leeched. few thousand dollars for studio renting, another for equipment, then a few hundred (possibley) for pressing of about 700 cds, 150-300 of which will get purchased, yet it will get downloaded 400+ times.
A lot of big bands can handle the loss (Metallica, fucking whiney bitches) but those just starting out can get kind of royally fucked
