That point is brought up often, but don't forget that while touring might work for your average indie rockband, it's not as easy for obscure ambient, experimental musicians. Music that is primarily intended for home listening is a lot harder to sell as live performance. Again, I don't intend to offend the users of those services - just saying that Spotify, rdio and co. alone won't work for many artists.
