I think that we should all be happy for the mouse that they
got picked up by a major label. The people at up are probably
glad it happened as well. I mean look at what happens for
up if the mouse gets superhuge as the result of epic promotion.
People who like the new album will want to buy the old albums.
Without having to do much of anything up will likely sell a much
larger number of units than had the mouse stayed with them. As
a result of this they can sign up more new bands take more risks
on marginal bands etc.
