The first point to note is that listening to recorded music and going to live concerts differ in how much money is spent. Usually, listening to recorded music costs less than going to live concerts. For instance, the price of a music album is almost always lower than the price of a concert ticket. On the other hand, according to some music albums which are more expensive than some concert tickets, they can be cheaper in another way; music albums can be kept for a long time and be played hundreds or thousands times, but live concerts are just once for a few hours, so listening to recorded music is relatively cheaper than going to live concerts. Another typical example is online downloading. The Internet provides an enormous amount of recorded music that people can purchase at lower prices even free.
