> The silly part of this is that the industries he compares software to - music, television, movies - have all been skeletonized and reduced to minimal and repeatable products. Simply looking out the door should be enough to convince you that if you want to bring back the magic, asking to be treated like a television writer isn't the way.

not really sure if this is helpful, but i see this take way too often on here. i’m convinced people who say this about the film and media industry don’t go out of their way to find good movies and listen to good music because the amount of high quality, hard to find stuff being made today is honestly amazing.

The spirit of human creativity is unstoppable and always building off itself. I’d just like to see a world where instead of being hard to find, creating the good stuff pays the rent.

I would argue it's not even that hard to find anymore. It's just the user taking the time to do some research and trying things out.
