Songwriters Survey: What You Must Know by Jaci Rae - Every songwriter and musician has a dream. Things you must know for your 
Blog Entry
Let me preface this by saying that I have the utmost respect and admiration for songwriters who can write song after song. Those very talented individuals who, while they are sitting on the plane, in the bathroom, or at a dining table, grab a napkin, the roll of toilet paper, the safety guide on the airplane, or whatever may be handy and start frantically writing.

The statistics were very interesting and I hope not conclusive of what is going on in the music industry right now, although I suspect they are indicative of it.
