From the article:

"By demanding blanket suspension powers from the government, the industry is in danger of cutting off a promotional tool that is of great use to fledgling artists who seek to create a buzz around themselves yet don't have the financial support of a major label,"

Why aren't these 'fledgling' artists offering up their music for free ( legally) as self promotion?
