Jon Bon Jovi has recently lashed out at Apple boss, Steve Jobs, blaming him for 'killing the music business'.

Speaking to the Sunday Times Magazine he explains that he believes downloading has affected the music industry and that a new generation of music fans have "Missed the whole experience of putting on headphones, turning it up to 10, holding the jacket, closing their eyes and getting lost in an album."He goes on to say that "I hate to sound like an old man now, but I am, and you mark my words, in a generation from now people are going to say, 'What happened?' Steve Jobs is personally responsible for killing the music business."

Many music fans still infact purchase albums in CD format aswell as digital, however the availability of Downloadable music has allowed a new generation of musicians get their music heard. What's your opinion on downloadable music?
