there are only two ways to make a lot [of money] while you're young: One is to entertain the public; and the other is to cheat it.
The music business is suffering because fewer artists are being invested in. Labels are putting in less money, taking fewer risks and signing half as many artists as they did 10 years ago. Everything is risk averse right now and there are two ways to deal with a business situation like this: either reduce your risk or increase your return. They're reducing their risk to the bone and looking for ways with their 360 deals to increase their return. They're still not making money. Artists are suffering. Labels, or music investors, are suffering.
There are but two ways of paying debt: Increase of industry in raising income, increase of thrift in laying out.
