Most of the Red Hot Chili Peppers hit songs are pushing 30 years old. Their songs have already hit their peak popularity and will only be declining from now on.

This along with AI generated music flooding the market. An AI generated song has already been #1 on the iTunes Charts. AI generated music is only going to get better and more popular.

Future TV shows/movies/etc. will likely just be generating their own music, rather than paying royalties for "hit songs".

I picked up Cyberpunk again recently. It's gotten me curious about how the music for the game was developed. They have something like a dozen in-universe radio stations, which each has a handful of original songs.

Bach is still hot some 300 years later.

That's a good resaon enough to cancel your subscription.

I do get your point. They're taking the retirement package. The world officially sucks one bit more now. RHCP selling off, AI music.

Hey, at least the Rolling Stones are on tour again. Jagger is 82 and still dope.

Mixtape (game) clearly shows the power of and demand for familiar songs. See also: wedding receptions.

People don’t want just want “song sound good enough.” They have connections to specific bands/artists. Music is like…50% about the song, 50% about the memories associated with the band/album/song.

Random AI generated stuff…call me old fashioned, but I just don’t think it’ll make real music by real people go out of fashion.

Plus there’s live shows.

And? That hasn't been a problem for other artist catalogues

Yeah? It's a real big hit, huh? If you believe all of this, then I can see how it would make sense. It doesn't really pass the sniff test.

Why would they? They can already have knock-off whatever song they want for a trivial cost
