How The Music Business Ended

Here’s an article by Angela Poe with some interesting insights into the history and current state of how we make money in the music business. I don’t necessarily agree with all of it, but there are some really thought-provoking ideas in here. This one’s my favorite, and it follows on yesterday’s post:

“It’s not about creating a way to make it ‘fair’ for everyone — it never was fair for everyone. The sooner the entitlement generation learns that not everyone gets a gold star and a music career just because they went to college and got a degree in music or the music business, the better. And not everyone with the best computer equipment has talent.”
