They are trying to control everything. Free thinking and thought, they want you to pay for. I propose a massive media boycott. Let’s call it a “blackout” and see what they think about their media sales now.

The fact is that You Tube has actually promoted a lot of their shows and music videos, so artist or shows that were never seen before now get the credit they deserve. This is not a market that has been stolen from them, since they are not pushing such music or media conventions in the first place. This is a market that has now become in lucrative in its own right, and now there greedy little hands want to get a hold of it. They are not dreaming about what they have lost, but what they could gain.

In retrospect it seems that dying, formerly successful industries are screwing over ALL their customers before they give up and admit that they are obsolete. It will prolly take 20 years, give or take, for industries like record labels or oil companies to finally step out of the spotlight and go die. The internet is free, it always has been and always will be and some dinosaurs in suits are not gonna change that!

led zeppelin said it best “no radio singles = no label profits”. back in the day, you made your money through album sales and touring. now the dinosaurs in charge of labels sell you out to commercials and video game soundtracks. then try to push a record that has 1 good song, because the bands contract is for 6 albums. the record industry has doomed itself. to quote NOFX “Dinosaurs will die”

It’s labels that need to realize that they have become absolete and move on.

Their money comes from leaching it from successful artists and then leaving them with debt. Read “Confessions of a Record Producer” to find out what major labels make artists sign.

Any other money comes from lawsuits they make based on “intellectual property laws.”

The bottom line is clear. “Intellectual property” is safer kept in your intellect. If you don’t want it “stolen,” keep it to yourself.
