Are you a self-proclaimed "Fan" of Wonder Bread?

That's part of the problem with that analogy. Everything you typed is pretty much spot on ( to some degree), but you grew up listening to, and anticipating new works from your favorite artists. Don't you feel some loyalty to THEM? Fuck all this talk of "Business models" and how "The industry failed to adapt". Just think back to when you bought shit because your favorite artist had new shit out.
