I'm positive about the future too. As much as people complain, it can't get much worse than now. It's the end of an era, but the beginning of a new one. I just hope many of the producers out there who have been prevented (through industry problems) in getting their music out as they used to, haven't lost heart completely, and find the spirit to continue.
I think producers in general though, need to think a lot harder about what they put out, and respect the market by putting out the very best they can, rather than the latest 3 or 4 tracks they made.
