Back when we bought music albums (on vinyl or tape or whatever) we didn't subscribe to a content creator. We bought a product. If we liked it, we watched for the next release. I loved $NINETIES_BAND but I sure as heck wouldn't subscribe to them in the modern sense.

It is a big divide. Perhaps what is missing is the modern DJ.
