Re: Can Decision Be Bypassed?
The talent is in top artist making the big bucks. The people are not famous are the ones with the worst music. |

I think we are arguing two different things. I'm not saying that independent music has a higher percentage of talent. I am saying that a higher percentage of the talent lies in the independent scene. |

said by Maxo  :said by nixen :I wouldn't necessarily characterize either independent or RIAA content as inherently good or bad. It's not inherently good or bad, but it does happen that most good music that I hear today is coming from the independent scene. While that may be anecdotally true, you also need to factor in all of the truly horrid artists that are independent because they either haven't matured to the point of being of label interest or are just hacks that will *never* be good enough for you to ever hear and be artistically offended by.

said by Maxo :said by brianiscool :Yeah, but who would want to listen to your radio station? lol Most of the good music being produced today is not on RIAA contract. I wouldn't necessarily characterize either independent or RIAA content as inherently good or bad. Where the independent might have an edge over RIAA-represented content would potentially be artistry and originality.

said by brianiscool :Yeah, but who would want to listen to your radio station? lol There are plenty of other formats besides music which a for-profit online radio station could consider. Or, if the previous poster is correct about the RIAA member companies not having jurisdiction over material owned by non-RIAA members, they could simply play that instead. Of course, that implies that each station would need to make some sort of arrangements with the owners of that material instead.
