well, the whole "you don't need talent to make it big" thing is applicable in almost any industry, but i'm not sure this thread is so much questioning how things are (since you can't deny obvious realities) but how things should be
there are lots of things that sell in the world that i think are junk but i wouldn't ever question that they do well as a product, only whether they should
(some people kind of fail at that, see console fanboys)
