Labels need to be run by smaller and tighter. Labels as we know them may have their greatest value as distributors.


I think many of us have seen it that way for some time. Particularly since RTD crashed way back when.

Seems to me that the only purposes of major labels these days are 1. to leech the artists that actually sell from the indepependant sector 2. to nuture teen-friendly chart fodder that is not intended to have a shelf life beyond 2 years.

No change really then?

Mercifully, as the majors begin to crash and burn, the independant sector will always find a way. I can see millions of self-owned musical cottage industries setting up across the globe...sigh...some of us have been hoping for such a scenario for 3 decades.

Vive la revolution!
