Many artists are unable to separate the two, and it seems that some may begin to call themselves "traditionalists" because they're incapable/fearful of change. The successful artist of today must embrace change, not fear it (wait, haven't I heard that before?) and be able to adapt. Otherwise, they will be left in the dust.

The model you describe is also the model we are pursuing. I am also betting that creating more-expensive digital products will be so easy that every artist will do it. Sales of these products (to consumers) will happen on a spectrum, but every artist will pay to own the creation tool ($100.00). -Bruce I agree Sam.
