4. People Donâ..t Know What To Buy
Despite the rags and blogs, music is just not a general topic of conversation amongst the public now. Oh sure, young â..uns are still music passionate. But too often the music is just the grease, what you dance to, make love to. As for the oldsters, theyâ..re positively lost. They want to buy, but they donâ..t know WHAT to buy.
You used to trust the deejay.
For a minute there you trusted Starbucks.
