I don't think it's other forms of "entertainment" causing the decline or music itself causinng this decline. It's, in part, the plethora of entertainment possibilties that's leaving the public standing like a deer in the headlights. Too many variables and options. xBox360? PS2? Wii? Cable? Netflicks? Surfing the net? Blog?
Plus, and this is just my peave, music IS seen as entertainment. Even less that and more as a commercial means of selling OTHER products.
Music, to me, is still ART. But few think of it in this way any longer. Is art entertainment? Sometimes, but it doesn't have to be. THIS, is all but dead. Music today sells THINGS. Is not even valued enough to be purchased.
