Isn't this pretty much the model of all entertainment industries? How many buskers or local stand up comedians are there to each Seinfeld? How many koolmecraigs are there to each Dustin Hoffman? Even most of the chorus in your average opera has a 'real job' since until they 'break out' they're lucky to earn a modest income as it is. There are millions of bands all over the world, but most of them are lucky to get regular gigs, never mind the pittance of their first recording contract, or the fact they're more likely to die in a lightning strike then ever own their own recording label. :dunno

for sure. i see all that now. but until i saw that article i never thought about the fact that money is being made. if i thought about it, i would have thought it was just for the love of it. next thing, people will tell me you can make money playing 'starcraft' or something...
what?? in south korea? man, i shoulda learnt to play starcraft. i shoulda learnt to bang them thermo nuclear devices...

I'll have you know that Mr. Hoffman and I are both in the top 5% of SAG earners. I do have more youtube hits on my video though, 285,858 ;D

Well, it looks like one more job opened up for'em then.

yeah so I guess the large pool of unemployed cellists will soon be one person smaller.
