Death of the Middle Class Musician
Interesting reflection by two older musicians (Beato and Tim Pierce) about how the music industry used to have a "middle class" that's been pushed out now by an industry that focuses more and more on profits.
They don't really go into the details of how the changes happened, with big-corp #capitalism being the elephant in the room ... but their observations, which include tech, paint a pretty clear picture.

Great line in there from Tim about how everyone is now viewed as an Uber driver and how its hard to justify being paid more than one.
