Therein lies the problem. Them trying to please everybody, rock and pop audiences.
I'm not naive enough to think that music is JUST about the music, because a lot of them wouldn't be in it if they couldn't make a decent living. However, there is a certain amount of artisitic integrity some artists aren't willing to give up, and yeah, so they don't make millions, but they make enough to live on because they want to do it their way.
Success is also about the creative process. Just completing something like an album is success in some artists' eyes.
