> from an artist's persective, doesn't it make more sense to not sell an album and have a listener than to not sell an album and not have a listener? I agree with this, my priority being that the music of the people I chose to work with be heard, though it would be nice to sell enough copies to be able to pay them royalties, and furthermore allow them to live off their music. for sure jeff is right when he says that people should keep in mind the work of musicians and smaller labels, and that none of us is getting paid for that. it is a labour of love so hopefully we can go on though it be financially tough. philippe | 0000 \\\\.. \\\\ __ http://www.bip-hop.com _---| 0000 \\\\..\\\\ ==> contemporary electronica challenging the ears and the mind
