Court ruling screws labels, favors artists

    The most positive thing about record labels, really, was the actual labels they pasted on the records.

    You go to some shows and the bands will give away their CDs. Bands used to make money on records and tour to support them, now it is mostly the other way around. Which is why people were so concerned about LiveNation buying Tickemaster.

    Yup. The label was exciting back in those days. Since the CD player and then the mp3, no one sees those pieces of art spinning on the turntable. They've lost their magic.

    Yeah, except now we can take all the music we want, wherever we want to go and can listen to it whenever we want.

    Pine for the old days all you want. I'm perfectly fine with digital downloads and iTunes. :)

    Maybe my fave labels.....Steve Winwood's Arc Of A Diver had one of these on each side.
