Agreed. I would love to build a small business offering software/saas and live quietly with that, but I don't have a fine grasp of what people want to pay for.

So I'm building a mobile game, as entertainment will get paid for.

By contrast, I would LOVE to see an article like this about entertainment.

A solid, testable method of building entertainment people will pay for would be extremely valuable - to me and many other people.

(Patio11, any ideas?)

I'm sure this has been researched intensively by the media giants. A lot of pop music and rehashes of classic movies are a product of this I think.
