AAAAARGH!!!!!

to make her foolish analogy make any sense one would have to imagine a
monopoly on vegetables. the monopolist also wants to sell the vegetables
and can fix the price so only the monopolist (or their big money
buddies) can sell the vegetables.

fucking, fucking fuckers!!!
</blind rage>

"Real Life" is what bitter old people tell kids to convince them to keep
working shitty jobs…I distrust anyone
who uses that phrase.

corporate drones killing music

It is a big shame that corporate companies (especially in america) cannot
see the value of local radio creativity. lacking imagination, always
measuring by the buck - idiots, more assholes killing creativity. Why is
there not a revolution in america! You sure need one…

not to forget the payola part of the sustainable real life business model

instead of scaling royalties in da' corporate model for the web real life
audience who, without them realizing, or respecting, don't exclusively surf
for downloads on lime wire but comprise a broad information savvy audience.
These are the one's who look for music trends and immediate artist/music/
audience interaction with other pundits that create an important underground
buzz /fan base for music. Rather then seeking loaded ratings for fiscal
reports perhaps they need to grab hold of and listen to the web-brain of the
grass roots music culture and faciltate their needs rather then cut off an
important part of their their real ife support by jaming the jammin'.


Perhaps its all britney and the bottom line to the corporations because
there are 400 pearl jam bands out there boring the crap out of everyone.
However like others I spend as much more time seeking out music and music
information and social feedback online. I think many like me are continuing
to tune out the popular brands and dead trend followers and cover junkies
who create a calcophony of bottom feeding aural pollution for a dying bored
and bloated consumer culture. The music corporations and their all too
willing puppets with their bottom line objectives and irritating royalty
whine are getting so all they ultimately do is sell pepsi.

Best.
