you do realize that most artist never repay their signing bonus right (which includes the production cost of the album and min living expenses)
97.65% of artist never sell enough collect royalties from sales because the record company has to be paid back.
so you get 104,788

for something that the record companies offer you 20k for
even if you have 100% piracy rate from that point on your going to make way more money then you would with a record deal.
and let be clear that never happens because there will always be fans who will support the artist
i bought sonos mp3 even though i could get it for free because i want to support creative versions of old songs.
