For those of you that think we are talking about millions of dollars a year here and the "greedy artists"...

Edit: also Metallica didn't drop **** and call all **** off. Suit not Suite.
"90% of artists make "$5,000" off Pandora. Obviously Pink Floyd makes more than $5k, so I don't "feel bad" for them. For the other artists that make less than $5,000 (Which is a majority), that sucks. My comment was directed at Pink Floyd being fine on money, which they are. Them doing to make a statement is another thing.

You're really going to pick apart everything I said, and correct a single word?

Edit: Don't bother replying. I'm on your "Ignore" list after all.
