I believe great music will always survive, no matter what (apart from the end of the world, liable to arrive before my personal demise, I suspect).
In The Know is right (as usual) - it's the old model that's dead.
And the executives (99% of them) who still work to that format and are unable to adapt.
But those of us who ARE adapting remain positive.
If you make it and it's great, it will happen.
Who cares about the coke and the limos and the gorgeous girls/boys?
I never did, despite rumours (and wrongful convictions) to the contrary.
It's the SATISFACTION that counts.

I know many young aspiring artists trying to make their mark on the music industry. Many of them have decided that it's not for them anymore because the goalposts keep moving.
The choice of music is now so great and accessable that acts, who years ago would have stood a chance of the big time just disappear.

The singles chart will never be the same, its dead, you might as well call it The Track Chart since it has albums tracks in it.
Hardly any new entries in the chart this week apart from 1, that's because all the new singles are entering the chart on download only before their physical release.

I reckon we've reached the end when a top ten single sells under 10,000 copies.
It was such a splendid era, the last 50 years of single chart hits.

I found it very interesting
