| Who cares? I hope this marks the panicked death throes of the giant record labels and the RIAA. Hopefully the world will soon wake up to the fact that no-one needs these giants any more.
Since you can arguably record and produce music in your bedroom, of a quality as good as high profile commercial releases, and then release it on the net, then what is the point of a record label?
As a possible side benefit, all the half-arsed, cheap, highly commercial pop shite might die out since there won't be any cynical executives pushing this stuff through; we'll be back to the age of small musicians making music because they want to, not megastars churning out the same old shit album after album because it makes them shed loads of cash. |
