Big corporations that own record companies and radio stations are really limiting our access to new music. You have to work hard to find all this music, and most people don't have the time or money to do so.

If "they" are releasing 10,000 CD's a day, how are "they" stifling access to new music? Obviously its out there when it might have been stuck within sound radius of a garage before.
Wouldn't it be fairer to say, particularly with the downloading capacity available, that people have probably never had wider access to eclectic music than they do now
Also, it goes without saying that people don't have the time or the money to review 10,000 CD's a day . . . . . so how is that the fault of anyone and secondly, doesn't that confirm the point above?
