The ad revenue that I helped support, I can't imagine matches outright purchasing of the album. Or does it (spread across all users)?
I heard Dave Navarro interview the other day and he said that he was lucky that Janes Addiction started before the internet age because there was big money in album sales that just isn't happening nowadays. The music business has changed a lot and it is much more watered down and much less money being made, but it is easier for bands to get heard that would have never had a chance at all before, although it doesn't really transfer into money.
