Okay, I will admit that the Courtney Love has some good points. But I do
believe that artists should retain the rights to what they have created but
that's solely their decision to go with a major--not ours. Those labels
aren't sticking a gun to their heads and forcing them to sign their lives
away. I personally don't think that the big artist have any room to
complain; they've made their money. So let her break contract and start her
own label because I'm tired of the whining.

Where did this come from? I'm sorry but this statement is false. Musicians
go into producing for artistic control of a work. Money is secondary. Good
producers like control. I'll be happy to show you this behavior in a number
of studios in the area...
There's a lot of activity going on in the music industry right now. I don't
agree with the "napster is our savior" mentality that's going on. I don't
think that righting the injustice that labels may or may not have committed
is a proper excuse for stealing tracks. If any of you would like to
understand where I am coming from, drop me a line.
