Rightly or wrongly, with streaming there’s no quality control (ha!), minimal cost of entry, and no gatekeeping by labels protecting a tiny number of artists. There’s a million tiny artists on Spotify who are taking those fractions of pennies that otherwise would’ve gone to Alison Moyet in the 1980s.

I think there's something to this. The audience outside of the top few pop acts at any given time is extremely attenuated.
