There is more than one type of 'music'.

1) A canned product, made to a formula, packaged and marketed to a research audience at a price the market will bear. This has been around to a degree for a very long time, but now there are whole industries built on this. It is often bland, and not designed for those of a creative bent, after all, if you open a can of baked beans, you wouldn't want it to taste like liquorice and baby powder one day, would you? Creative and exciting that may be, but not what is wanted.

2) Something one does in the privacy of one's bedroom for one's own personal pleasure. Keep it clean, this is a family show.

3) A mostly harmless form of ego-tripping, where one can show off the results of much personal hard work, often gained thru much exercise of 2) [keep it clean!] a bit among friends, sometimes for small renumeration.

4) A scholarly collection of the outputs of any of the above, preserved unchanged for eternity.

And now we are back to 1), using the products of 2) 3) & 4) but feeling more self-righteous.

If you want to 'educate people about music', thus there is really more than one sort of 'music' you need to be educating people for, to enter an industry like 1), the path is very different from the others, although there is some overlap.
