The scale of the US market does not lend itself easily to labels just being distributors. There are already distributors and 'one stops' that do this job. They are middle men who have their own vested interest in remaining in the game. The labels would have to put them out of business or buy them.

Labels are big business. They are lazy. They do not do the footwork. They do not visit stores anymore. They do not know what the buzz is until late. They do not innovate, they buy. They buy small labels. They poach bands off smaller labels. They do not groom for the long term. They think of now. Too many bands get their career back when their moment is over and no one cares.
