Actually, I think that if you want to live off of making music you should think like an artist and plan on making most of your money by actually playing music instead of hoping that you can make a living off of music you played decades ago. Intellectual property and royalties were only invented less than 200 years ago and there's no guarantee that people will be able to depend on that as a source of income in the future.

That was not my point at all. Sorry if that was unclear.
