This is true, although I believe the situation has gotten much worse over the years.
I read something once, that if Frank Zappa were just coming up now, that he'd never get a record contract. Maybe Frank said it himself in an interview. I think during the mid to late 1960s to early 1970s, the record companies were more willing to take a chance on a new artist than they are now.
Just think how much the music world would have been denied if Zappa had never been given an opportunity.

releasing his own material hell or high water and gathering a dedicated band that would follow him into the fray.
Some people have so much music, motivation, stamina and drive to them that pretty much nothing will deter them from pursuing their art.

Ok, I'm back. Whew, I'm going to have to get back to that article after work. There's a lot there!
