    I saw this as well. Yer it’s interesting, I’ve been thinking for a while now the way musicians will make money from music has changed due to the internet. Sell a few thousand albums a year without the help of a record label and you’re on a full time wage. This is a good set of figures for musicians to look at, hopefully it’ll open a few people’s eyes…
