<p>As Michael mentioned after seeing it, it would be great to see a chart of sustainable music careers (rather than gross  sales of recorded music) to see if there&#8217;s been any change at all in the  music business.  In other words, how many artists are making a profit and enough money to live on (say $30k per member) across the entire business.  I think that&#8217;s the greatest challenge these days &#8211; not to break through huge but to break through enough to make a decent living.  Onward and upward!</p>
