I've been saying that for years. For a "new" artist who gets signed, they don't make any money off CD sales anyways. The Label makes al the money. Oh, they used to do some marketing & promotion, and tour support, but they charge all that shit back to you anyways. As a musician, if I give my music away for free, or just a nominal fee, I'm building an audience who will come out and see me live, which is the only way I make any money signed to a Label or Not. Why do I need a label to mediate between me an my audience....?stevecongaTue, 10 Apr 2007 10:11:40 -0000
