As digital technology has replaced middle man institutions as the bridge between artist and audience, it has reduced the costs to create and market content. Through social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, artists today can forge a direct relationship with an audience and motivate fans to support their work. New business approaches, like crowd funding, allow for artists to raise money through sponsorship networks comprising of friends, family, and fans.
