I'm assuming no one is entitled to make money off of anything in particular, so yeah, music falls in that bin.

"Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize."
Sorry, but I'm convinced this exchange is pointless.

You literally were triggered by "What?" in your previous response so maybe you should take this guideline to heart yourself.
Presumably "someone who makes music and sells recordings of it for a living", the people I was talking about, won't "feel as the gp". It doesn't seem like your criticism really touched on what I said.
(Maybe you are also assuming "No-one is entitled to make a living selling their music" or something like that.)
