The Convergent Future of Music Games and Higher Education:  ”You know what makes a lot of money? Music games. Even in 2009, a year in which music games saw a 46% drop in sales from 2008, DJ Hero became the highest-grossing new IP across all genres.

Yet for the companies that make music games, the cash continues to roll in.”
