No, the real problem is that there aren't enough songs needed, for all the people who write songs. Kinda like selling snow to Eskimos.
But another big component is that a lot of the people trying to do this aren't really good enough. And as with many other people trying to make it as writers and entertainers in general the impulse is to blame the "industry" rather than admit that to yourself. This guy has no chance of success in Nashville with the material he has on his reverbnation page (I'm sorry to be blunt about it if he's reading this.) If there is really a "well known song-plugger" who is taking his money to promote these demos to anyone in Nashville he/she must be a rip-off artist or completely incompetent. Once again, just my two cents as someone whose only qualification is that I listen to the radio occasionally.
