Not really?!? Music,art, and literature all evoke a feeling that takes us out of our mundane realities. Ya know the feelin' when ya see or hear one of yer favorite jams bein' used to sell ya somethin'? For me I'm like NOOOOOO!!! That's just not right!!
Niche audience? We'd like to think that....Myself I'm abhorred at the fact that there are Cthulhu beanie babies and Christmas ornaments fer sale out there.
Who is profiting from Lovecraft's work? Not him. Marketing that's all it is!
On the other side if your an artist of course you'd want yer work to go mainsream and make big money....It's a fine line between the scared and the mundane.....
