This reminded me-- years ago, I ran into an old high school friend and asked him what he had been up to. He had gotten into graphic design and wound up partnering with a couple of guys who had a recording studio. They had a niche product and needed cover art -- and lots of it. He explained to me that they would release albums of fart noises on iTunes -- like many, many albums -- and the tracks would get a ton of plays, and people would purchase the albums. The partners made enough to pay him a good salary for just illustrating fart album cover art.
