Damn right. And not to be confused either is the music business and the music itself.
As for adapting to y new reality, this is just the human fate, no more and no less. I believe those who discovered you could suddenly "can" music on a wax cylinder and that the singer himself was not necessary anymore
everytime one would want to enjoy his craft must have experienced a bolder shove than we do.
We desperately crave for stability and models carved in stone. But nothing in life is ever linear. Peaks, valleys and cycles, Baby. The times they are a-changing, well, you bet... It started billion years ago for the amoebae, and will pretty much go on after Lady Gaga (not so far from said amoebae, precisely).
