for any person who may have just lost his job due to a slow economy...

I bet you could make a reasonable side income by joining all the poetry newsgroups you can find and offer the service of putting their poems to music for a fee.

I know several women who have paid what I consider to be large amounts of money to have their poetry set to music. I heard the songs, they were not as good as BIAB would have generated.

People will always spend money on an ego-enhancing hobby
