This is absolutely disgusting.

Value != money.

What a sad bit of reasoning. Monetizing destroys value. The value of music and other arts has nothing to do with how well or poorly it is monetized.

Whether monetization increases or decreases other kinds of value is a topic for a different discussion; the only thing I said was that all types of value can be monetized.

And as such, the assertion is still wrong, imo. Not all types of value can be monetized.
