Default Independant labels & YouTube

In the interests of getting something interesting going, I am sure most of you have heard about this...

This has been showing up in the media everywhere these last few weeks. Lot's of indie labels & artist's pissed off about it. Funny all the major labels are cool with it
Of course they are not forceing anyone to do anything they dont want & if you dont like it I say close your YouTube account & go to Vimeo or similar. Hey if your supposed to be indie then why do you rely on huge corporations like Google for your living. Or maybe people have forgotten what being independent is all about! On a similar note...

The sad state of affairs is that what where once small indie labels have become exactly the thing they hated...corporate business's.
Yeah sure Adele's label XL is indie??? She did the last Bond theme FFS! Which is just about as corporate as it gets. If she was on some small independant label nobody would give a fuck.
There all as bad as each other & the music industry is more dog eat dog than ever Trouble is there's more dog's wanting more of the really skinny carcass.
