Close Down the Internets!

Sir Elton John says we need to close down the internet because his musical tastes haven't changed since the 70's, when he last had a hit. He finds dismay in the ability to record professional music in your home and put it out on the internet for all to hear, He thinks we should just sit around listening to old scratchy vinyls of Goodbye Yellowbrick Road. This is yet another case of somebody so out of touch with the realities of modern society, no wonder his last "album" flopped. The internet has brought out more music THAN EVER, people can share their talents with the world without the need of a middleman record company taking all the profits and stealing a little bit of their soul. I for one believe the internet has increased the flow of music, it allows you to find what you like and purchase directly from the artist, you can "social network" your music with services like iLike.com, find old out of print albums etc. the list goes on. So, Sir Elton you are wrong! go back to being a 70's has been where you belong.
