well i don't think they really make that much money in the long run!. even the greatest bands out there have to pay ridiculous studio fees, and managing fees, and all types of fees and if they aren't careful they might not even break even!. for example, the Jonas Brothers (i don't like them but i'm using them as an example) are one of the most polular bands out there but they are in debt right now!. so in reality it really does "depends"Www@QuestionHome@Com
