I've seen many artist bankrupt themselves quickly by signing with a label. I think that in SOME cases it can be beneficial if you know what you're signing and truly trust your money grubbing lawyer. However, the success rate is rare and sometimes short lived. Indie artist are becoming real key players in the game finally. Even big names are jumping on board with the new trends. Bravo for sharing this article/interview....and for handing out statistics!
Cris,

Indie artist are becoming real key players in the game finally. Even big names are jumping on board with the new trends.

Shows that a label is not the be all and end all. I can't tell you how many emails I get asking "How can I get signed?" My answer is not to try. But if a label comes to you then it might be time to do some business. - Chris
