This always struck me as odd. Writers are clearly aware making money in their industry now is an uphill battle, yet in music (which has the very same environment), people seem to think the industry is thriving.
- fiatmoney 12y agoMusicians get significant non-pecuniary benefits. Eg, groupies.
- munificent 12y agoThe industry isn't thriving, but music is. I think what you see is that more and more musicians do it for mainly non-financial incentives. That's been true for most musicians since time immemorial, but it's even more true today. It turns out you don't really need to pay people much to get them to make and play music. They just need some gear and enough free time to do it.
