The music industry is constantly changing thanks to the internet, the global connectivity created by social media, sites like YouTube, and the digitization of music. Moreover, with the advent of internet and satellite radio, people are no longer limited to the geographical boundaries of their local radio frequencies, so getting radio play on a major station isn't the coveted achievement it once was. Gone are the days of people making demos and relentlessly sending them to every record label and radio station in the business, because today, people can use internet resources, music sites, and local recording studios to produce, sell, and promote their own music.
