    Excellent video, but you should memorize the shape so you can look at the camera.

    I like how you show that free music can still give the musicians profit as it turns into a promotional and interest gaining tool for live concerts and merchandise.

    I’m guessing your next video will address adding value and convienience instead of hindering those (such as with DRM). You sort of hint at that when you said that other scarcitys were often overlooked such as attention, time, and access.

    Excellent job!
