So interest in music isn't sagging. It's just too easy to get it through illegal routes.

My point is that it is too easy to get through LEGAL means. That feeling we all used to have where you had to listen to a song fifty times... And you couldn't get it without buying it, getting excited when it came on the radio or MTV... That feeling is gone. It's out there for free, legally.
