But you don't have to engage them to the point of selling a zillion albums.

Lots of people settle for smaller audiences, and concentrate on making music that they like rather than music that would sell.

Yeah. But let's be honest. It would have been a very different playing field if Music at Work was released before Road Apples. Would they be headlining sold out shows like they do now? The Hip are able to create music such as MAW and IVL because of Up To Here and Road Apples.

Maybe so, but the world is full of people making a living at music without ever having that level of success.

Not as good a living, mind you, but a living.
