 Re: NIN and Radio Head have put the nail in the coffin
Cool find!. After posting in this thread yesterday i was chatting with some friends about this very same thing. With artists deciding to ditch the traditional major's, something will need to fill the void and provide the same services. It will be interesting to see what new companies are formed to accomadate what will be needed.
With the Madonna situation it sounds like she is leaving 1 company (WB) to test the waters with a new company which is made up of a a bunch of other companies who want to put everything ( recording, touring, merch, endorsements) under one roof, which at that point would have control over pricing of said things. Which could turn out to be "Major record label 2.0." right? |
