Logic Breakdown

Passage Summary: The editor says there isn't much remixed music online because almost nobody who downloads music actually makes their own stuff.

Conclusion: The idea that a lot of Internet music consists of remixed versions of others' work is a myth.

Reasoning: Data shows that 99 percent of people who download music never actually upload or publish any original music of their own.

Analysis: The editor makes a classic 'percentage vs. volume' error. Even if only 1% of users are creators, that small group could be incredibly prolific, generating a massive amount of content. Furthermore, the argument assumes that the behavior of the average downloader represents the total output of the platform. Look for an answer that points out that a tiny minority of people can still be responsible for a 'significant amount' of the total content available. It's a bit like saying there's no professional basketball because 99% of people who buy basketballs don't play in the NBA.
