Starting at the birth of rock and roll and up until this very day, rock and roll fans have spent exorbitant amounts of money and time buying music, attending rock concerts and buying rock and roll paraphernalia. Indeed, just recently Bruce Springsteen sold his entire catalog of music, including his master recordings and song publishing catalog, to Sony Music Entertainment in a blockbuster deal that reportedly is worth $500 million.
