They go on tour. Honestly I think that is how it should be anyway. I mean they complain about illegal downloads which I understand is hurting their business but did they complain when you could take a cassette tape and record it off the radio? No because people were still buying but nowadays the economy sucks so people spend their money elsewhere. Also they do get money from sites like itunes and other download sites and still some sales from cds. It just isn’t like it used to be.

Record signings, record company pays them first then take all the money from the albums sold (not quite sure about this, but that’s a basic idea on how it works)
