So actually you're saying that if we start produce music for free then we'll produce a better music? LOL i'm kidding ;)
I can tell you from a musician point of view, of course the ideal is also to get your freedom to make your creativity and also get reward for it, but I feel that when i'm actually working making music, if it's for my own purpose and i'm producing for myself then you're right, but lots of the time I find myself working for others.. let's say if i'm working for another person, like producing a song for another singer or just recording someone, without being paid, then if i'm not rewarded I don't fully interested in doing that, cause actually i'm creating but i'm not creating for my own reasons, i'm creating for another person demand, that said, I expect him to reward me.
