Re: Can Decision Be Bypassed? 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.

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.

Tallahassee, FL | 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. |

| The talent is in top artist making the big bucks. The people are not famous are the ones with the worst music. |
