This guys whole culture beat is so absurd. He seems to miss the time when record companies would, as a technological necessity (anemic information flow up and expensive information distribution down), create hits in a more or less top down way. People still like and listen to instrumental music as much as ever (probably more instrumental musicians are producing more music of more different types than ever before) but what he wants is for some giant distribution system to tell everyone "this is a hit, this is culture."
