I love punk rock it has a DIY. Most of the bands produce and distribute their own music.
I did not know that most produced and distributed, that is a lot of work
Yeah punk rock is all about individual freedom and anti-establishment views.  So doing things on your own is a big part of it. 
Well that makes sense but it still seems like a lot of work for artists
Yeah but the ethos is about soing it yourself, non-conformity and not selling out. So it's worth the effort. 
I get that and they probably make a little more by doing so much of it themselves
it depends but it's not about making money. 
Right its about individual expression more than money but they save money doing it themselves
Yes it's more about it's value as a social form and satisfying need.
