Perhaps! But how about defining a word like
sexy? I'm sure everyone here would like to give a definition of this. And I could argue that sexiness can be seen as music too, but that's a
whole other topic.

Can we even include sound? I used to fall asleep composing whole symphonies in my head. I'm a geek. But more importantly, I wasn't physically hearing anything - so does that rule it out as being music? I mean, people *hear* voices in their head. What's the difference?
And I agree, music shouldn't be about money. There are those for whom music is only a means of making money, and there are true musicians who would play regardless of the money. But we all need to earn a crust somehow
