MIDEM TALENT Conference: Artist Development Is the super-acts model sustainable?

For years, the music business value chain has mostly relied on the model of highly profitable super acts, whose success has allowed the development of all other new or middle-tier artists. Is this business model still sustainable in todays new music environment? If yes, how to best develop it and provide the conditions to create the super acts of tomorrow? If unsure, what are the alternative models that need to be explored?
