What's killing music?

Jello Biafra shared some wisdom in a Dead Kennedys song written 20 years ago that still rings true today IMO:

Quote:
Tin-eared
Graph-paper brained accountants
Instead of music fans
Call all the shots at giant record companies now

The lowest common denominator rules
Forget honesty
Forget creativity
The dumbest buy the mostest
That's the name of the game

But sales are slumping
And no one will say why
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!?
For a laugh, you can read all the words here:
