Re: dynamic pricing, my opinion is whether intentional or not it stiffens viewing art in general. How do you dynamic price viewing art? Aren’t they supposed to be artist? I don’t think this is what bands had in mind when they started. When bands become successful they’ll have to distinguish themselves and make “artistic” decision to become a true artist OR just another money making performer in relation to how the “viewing” of their art is controlled. Equal access to art has to be priority or the thrill will be gone.
