This is pretty standard practice (being in a band) you use these services on youtube facebook and twitter to acquire followers. The thinking is the more "popular" you are the more people will listen and records labels will give you more attention.
sales pay back money given for recording and other expenses paid by the label. Musicians make their money off shows and merchandise.Originally Posted by jlohm1:24894824

Yep its all a scam. Its pretty much politics as existing artists can pretty much just pay or have their label pay to keep them relevant by pumping their stuff to the mindless youths.
Same. I haven't paid for music since 2002.
Twitter can be huge. A local sports writer here started using Twitter this year and seen his website go from making $10 a day to $100 a day. He says that probably 90% of his traffic comes from Twitter.

The problem is that a lot of people feel that way even for the unknown artists who don't have a big label behind them. If you enjoy an artist, and can afford to buy their music, do it. It can make a huge difference in the lives of the lesser knowns.
That being said, the big time labels doing stuff like this can suck it.
