&gt;&gt; filming technology is already commoditized at the entry level<p>But Indie music is better in the personal preference category and usually no worse in production values. And on the other hand what we see in regular tv: we see increasing abundance of content , and most people flocking more and more to the highly rated content which usually has high production values and often some measure of high brand.<p>That&#x27;s probably because they don&#x27;t want to risk an hour of their time. On the other hand , listening to a new song ? who cares if it&#x27;s bad - it&#x27;s only a minute to switch to something else , and it&#x27;s a social custom too.
