"Not only that, but the artists don't stick around very long anymore."

This is true. Years ago a record label would sign on a relatively new and unheard of band and invest in them, counting on the fact that they would eventually get popular and earn them some money. After getting popular these artists would go on huge national and world tours, staying around and releasing hit albums for 5 - 10 years, and sometimes longer. These days that no longer seems to be happening. Now, the record labels will find someone who will release a song, the record labels will push it on all the big radio companies using bribes and other kickbacks, and they will get themselves what we always used to call a one-hit-wonder. After about a year this artist will no longer be heard from, and the record label moves onto the next artist for that top 10 hit single.
