Absolutely. Nashville "ain't" Nashville any longer either. It' simple business, I get that. The days of Boxcar Willie, Tammy Wynette, George Jones are long gone and replaced by Digital studios with $200 an hour session guys who, if lucky, get to hit the road with the latest 17 year old "superstar". Analog is dead and gone, unfortunately. It's now straight from studio to digital file to radio - and selling a few CDs along the way.

Hell, "Music", regardless of the genre, is slowly going the way of the dinosaur; replaced by "DJs" in bars. Hell, I played in several local bands back in the "days" (just for fun) and then quit playing for about 35 years. Got into it briefly again (missed it) and the really bad thing about it? I made MORE money back in the 60s than I could in the late 80s. Go figure.
