this will change. within the next 3 years you will see apple and other communications companies becoming quasi-labels.
as major record companies lose their powerful role as manufacturers and distributors - they will become marketing departments and that's all. the days of record companies asking for 70% revenue shares of sales are over. there is no reason that in 3 years time, when the majority of all legit music sales are digital that apple and similar won't start dangling contracts in front of recording artists. revenue shares will become more realistic and hopefully it will be possible for less successful musicians to make a moderate revenue. on 11/2/04 3:10 AM, Martin at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> sale.
