A viable business model was already presented by me. Give music out for free for the most part, sell to those who want to support the artist through record sales and allow the band more exposure so that they can have bigger and more profitable tours. What you are failing to realize is that under the current business model, bands make the vast majority of their money touring.

viable for a few but not for all. many artists rely on record sales. many artists don't like doing tours. And it also neglects the talent that is not self propogating.. many artists would die without the big machine behind them.
