His graph should be labelled with "exerted effort" involved rather than "technical distribution". It's about the same amount of difficulty to distribute podcasts/books/music on the internet, but podcasts require the least amount of effort (connect microphones to pc, hit record in any basic audio recording app) whereas books require a sustained amount of effort across time as does music. Publishing a book also requires you to learn specialist software for publishing the book (although Vellum seems to have simplified this) and music requires you to master a DAW. Obviously narrative films and games require not only more effort but 99.99% of the time, a team to make.
- louky 3y agoMy Guitar->microphone->audio recording app model of music production doesn't even require knowing what a "DAW" is, yet works fine for me and others.
- shwaj 3y agoAre you doing it professionally or as a hobby? I’d wager that >99% of artists who make a living from music use a DAW (or pay someone else to)
