iTunes have made it possible for our infinitive access to the world of music...Every company possible has asssociated itself with iTunes in one way or another giving us maximum exposure to endless audio material... This access has brought us closer to the world of music, encouraging us to increase our knowledge on such a topic. The advantages, well, music knowledge television shows such as "Noot Vir Noot" have become a piece of cake, however, what about the detrimental effects this endless access to music has on our youth of today. With this freedom of music dowloads etc...comes the inability to monitor what sort of music your children are listening to...Artists such as Eminem or Korn...hmmm...well would anyone want their child to be exposed to "burn my dog and kill my cat" type of music? Remember, a childs brain is like a sponge...absorbing everything he or she encounters...Where is the limit if there is endless access to itunes???

I dont think that easy access to music is a problem in new media. in the past children may not have had such easy access to any type of music they wanted but they still would be able to gain access to the genre of music that enjoyed listening to. if a person enjoys listening to "burn my dog and kill my cat" kind of music who are we to judge. music is a form of freedom of speech and personal taste and it is up to the individual to decide what they want to listen to.
