Perhaps you could learn to play guitar to entertain yourself?
Oh, wait. That takes time, talent and creativity. Who does that kind of shit unless there's a paycheck?
What cracks me up about the whole thing is that the same people who refuse to compensate artists for their labors complain about the quality of the output. If art is so easy, go make it yourself; entertain yourself for free.
You'll see exactly why it should be compensated. It takes a hell of a lot of work, not to mention talent.
