There was an interesting program on NPR dealing with this issue. The upshot was that artists can no longer rely on traditional forums, such as radio to disseminate their music. Therefore, artists have become increasingly eager to get their music on car commercials and inserted into video games. It seems to be working, especially with regard to younger listeners.
Artists 'SELLING OUT' - can we discuss?
So, regardless of Chan in particular, what do you think of artists lending their music (and therefore their image, etc) to sell products?
(btw, I realize some artists don't own all of their catalog and don't have control over how their music is used, for example : The Beatles.)
