JK2006 Interesting that nearly 2000 people have read this thread in 24 hours.
DJKZ I've said this once and I will say it again.
Monetise your art and rebuild your raison d'etre.

I have done a lot of research and thinking about what the new model is and it is clearly about leveraging celebrity. Sorry for many people who think music is a serious art but today's currency is celebrity status which is sadly lacking in music in a large way.

Reality TV creates more stars than music now and the television model is the only one that works. Why ? Because companies will pay top dollar to be a part of your crowd or buy into your status.

Fans then become more like groupies who want everything you endorse from jeans to books. Whether you seek real TV or use Youtube as the equivalent, the new model is about TV. You can only appreciate it with your eyes and now that product placement is now going to be allowed, you will see how this model makes sense.
giles2008 Wish Lily Allen would retire early. Like before her next album perhaps?

You'll probably find that it's the people that are putting money on the table. And we need them.
