that's actually an interesting observation. With the internet and its accompanying file sharing, ripping, cd burning, Youtubing, etc, so prevalent now, so many new artists are trying to cut into a market that is becoming diluted with many new talents - to the point that the mainstays are the only recognizable artists who have maintained their market stronghold.
You only have see the download threads on TA: the Tiesto's, Cox's, Digweeds, Armins, PVDs, etc, have the most download links available. New artists have it tough trying to make a name within all that, hense the importance of PR campaigns such as dj mag voting and the like.
Also, the booking costs of some of these djs may have reached their apex. Fans will start to balk at overpriced tickets for artists who, in several cases, are past their prime and don't dj with that hunger anymore. The internet sure goes a long way in proving if an artist is still on his/her game, particularly with all these live sets circulating all over the planet.
