AI has brought a lot of incredible talent to prosperity. They probably would have made it anyway but this show gave them a platform to really market their talents very quickly and pervasively throughout US society.

I agree. Some of my favorites are Scotty McCreary and Kelly Clarkston... but....
I have been an avid follower and watcher of American Idol for the entire time it has been on and have loved it every minute of until this year. I don't really care to watch it because they don't let the artists be themselves. It was the original performances we fell in love with. They make them perform songs from so many different types of music that rarely do we ever see them perform songs that were what they would perform if they made a real album. Very disappointing. Many of them have lost their way. The Voice is so much better this year than Idol as they are not so restrictive. I will not miss Idol at all.
