Guitar Hero helps music industry more than RIAA ever could

Blorgr.com writes: "The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) is continuing its fight to stop people from illegally downloading from the Internet, and, at least in its opinion, saving the music industry. meanwhile, the rest of the world is moving on, and embracing new technologies and new means of distribution.

My personal story, detailed below shows how the Guitar Hero series of games could actually be doing more to help the failing music industry from itself than the RIAA and its worldwide partners could ever hope to with their targeting of pirates."

This is a nice blog and it's true, I have bought allot of the songs on the GH2/Rock band games other wise I would've never bought like "Slipknot's Before I forget".

RIAA should re-establish them selves or close their doors.

Guitar Hero? Sure. Activision greed and bulls**t? No thanks.

No we DONT need guitar hero or rockband. These games have had 7+titles each console cycle and Im tired of these being the mainstream and practically only focused on musical game.

Amplitude was brought back for PS4 yet with the tech and magic of DLC we didnt get it because not only gamers but devs have become out of touch.

Thumper impressed many and is at least a step in the right direction. I rather have more games like thumper. So screw all this rockband and Guitar hero BS! Take your guitars and peripherals and break them in half!
