Tha Psycho Hustla:
Major Or Indie Deal?

Trauma-san:
Here's the truth.  You can argue with it, but it's the fucking truth.  Most people don't have the talent to be successful as an independant artist.  A major label can make even a talentless artist a star.  So a major label is always, always, always better for an unknown act because to be successful as an independent artist when nobody knows you, you'd have to make it on talent alone... and most people aren't that talented.  It would take a talent on the level of Prince to get to the point where it made more sense financially.

Now, if you truly aren't that worried about the financial aspect, first, I don't believe you... and second, I guess an indy label would be better.

My guess, in about 10 years everyone will be Indy because the net will bankrupted the majors.

The net didn't bankrupt the majors.  The majors tried to shove contrived no talent ass clowns down our collective throats.  They fucked themselves, and our oligopolistic media - MTV / BET / VH1 all owned by Viacom, Clear Channel owning 2000 radio stations across the country.

I laugh when I hear people say the net killed the music industry.  I guarantee you porn is downloaded 1000's of times more, and they aren't having any issues.

porn learned to deal with the net very early on. The industry never fathomed it would have to. So the major's fucked themselves not knowing how to run now that the net is here.

And a no government type like you complaining about Clear Channel and Viacom... who are you.. Teddy Roosevelt? Damn progressives thinking they can hide behind a Ron Paul for president banner.
