Top 10 Reasons the Music Industry is failing

[PaulyT]

I don't accept the premise that music is dying.

IT'S STONE DEAD! THIS MUSIC HAS CEASED TO BE! IT IS AN EX-MUSIC!

The point being, musical acts seem to come in mirror-copy waves rather than being individual and distinctly different. If Label A came out with Act 1, Label B should come out with B2, not A1.1. Capice?

Oh, that formula. Well, as I've noted before, internet forum communication isn't the most efficient one. Yeah, that's not exclusive to music industry and it's no news.

It may not be exclusive to the music industry (which no one alluded to or implied) but it IS germane to this thread's topic.

It definitely is not. From what I've noticed and have read / been lectured, it's common in the work that is artistic in nature like fine art, architecture, literature, fashion, movies ...etc. Which brings up a question, when such occurrence is also common in other industries, the failing should be uniform in those industries as well but is it? :think:

Speaking of musical Formulas... I watched a bit of HLN this morning before class and their guest was Barry Manilow. That fired some old synapses, and fortunately this brilliant formula copy is on EweTube.
