I think that it is an incorrect assumption that the virtual marketplace was the main factor in the decade-long success of Second Life. Linden Lab has repeatedly missed the boat in not realizing that Second Life is primarily a form of social media (with a lot in common with Facebook, G+, etc.) enhanced by the creative expressiveness of avatars and virtual environments. While dressing your avatar is fun, without user-organized events, it would be a case of "all dressed up and nowhere to go". The under-valuing of the role played by musicians, artists and event organizers has led to a slow drift of these important content creators away from Second Life, and they've not been engaged to shape Sansar.
