I thought it was the endorsements.
How big a part of it are endorsements? I see all these brand names and their gear in promo shots wit hthe artists. Even the guitar picks.  
Any idea what proportion of recent "musicians" use "ghost writers" as opposed to actually write their own?

I'm sure any Gatherers here, what with all the vast music knowledge flaunted on here, could make a hit record and sell the hell out of it or get it placed in a commercial or soundtrack.

Too many. And the problem with a lot of these people is they don't actually like music.
I think the only way money is made on music nowadays is through advertising. You see the advert, before you hear the song.

   I wonder how many people try to be rock/pop stars thinking, "I don't have to be around a long time and pay my dues, I just have to write that one hit song that'll make me rich forever.."
How often does that work out?
