At the very least there is a lot of momentum against it. I am optimistic about it though, and believe it can be a viable revenue stream, even though it may not be the only one, for an artist. It fosters a 2-way relationship and feedback loop between a professional creator/artist and the people that most appreciate their work, which are the people that matter most in this scenario anyway. I’m happy if non-supporting people enjoy my music, for instance, but I really don’t think much about them in the grand scheme of things, and I certainly don’t give two shits what their opinion is about what I’m doing. I’m looking to connect with people that like what I make. To hell with the rest of ya…lovingly of course. 😂
