It is an objective fact though that the lack of DVD sales on the backend has completely changed the economics of movies and what gets made.

You also can't really compare the 90s to now when music and the movies were the dominate art form and there was no way to get rich and famous from just the internet.

I watched an interview with Jerry Cantrell from Alice in Chains and he said in the late 80s Seatle, he worked at a giant 50 room rehearsal space, almost apartment complex, that was opened 24/7. Music can't be the same as a time when being in a band was so popular that the economics could support a 50 band room rehearsal space that never closes. It is night and day different to now. Same with movies.
