A Primer In Complaining About "The Industry" Like A Real Musician

More music news from Wired, this time about a music management company trying to free bands from the shackles of the Big Record Labels.

I don't have much to say about this one, but for those of you who've never taken an interest in the business side of music, the article does a pretty good job of describing the major commercial problems with the industry right now, all artistic discussions aside. Two case studies in music marketing are the new Barenaked Ladies project and how Sarah McLachlan crossed the Canada-U.S. musical border.

After you've read the article, let me know what you think about this new business model.
