Agreed, there are various possibilities to have a free listen to unknown music. But some people - at least the older/"neophobic"/conservative ones - are unlikely to stumble across these new-fashioned, internetty possibilities. Again, this will probably change in the future. So somebody hast to make a start and I'm completely fine with UW being the ones.

I don't think so either. Should have expressed that more clearly.
