It's already happening in a sense. The most talented musician/composers/producers in the world aren't earning a living as rock stars, they're composing and producing music for Film, TV and Advertising.

It doesn't pay to be a "rock star" in this millennia.
That doesn't bother me at all. I've noticed no dearth of music. Which brings me back to my question that you chose not to weigh in on.
