For $100 I can set up a bedroom recording studio - as long as non-virtual instruments aren't included. The upload/download speeds for digital music is no longer a hurdle for either the artist or the listener.
My only point is that it's a ****ing hard career these days to try and make a living.
Hell, it was hard enough back in 1981 when I gave it up and went with Plan B.

Yeah, but most of those people don't put much effort into their music and aren't usually passionate about music, they're passionate about the fame, money or pussy they think they can get with music and give up when they don't become a star fast enough. People that set up cheep bedroom studios are a dime a dozen to the passionate people that shell out the money for studio recordings.
