The award space is tough. I keep finding myself thinking... how did this win that or whatsoever. Then I realize the entry fee is what it is. There was a "gallery showing," suggested to me by an internet list, and it featured a staggering similar price tag. All that for a 4-day show? You're right... excellent business models.
I'm not a European, so I don't really get the whole eurovision thing... but maybe that means it's time for me to start watching it. ^^
Hanz, you should enter a song. I suppose awards have always been a business to some level or another, but it's gone from recognition to straight business model, and that's the bit I raise my eyebrows at.
