Several movie and TV sites have come and go where you can just visit and watch without even creating an account. Quality might not be as good as a paid service and they are no doubt in the grey-to-red zone legally. I don’t see the same service for music.
Why do you think is there such a difference in trends?
What are you talking about? YouTube? The Pirate Bay? The radio? I’m honestly don’t understand why these sites don’t count.
