As always the US music industry is showing it is a massive embarrassment.

I’ve only just realized this after thoroughly reading more articles. Embarrassing, but I stand by my statement. I’m starting to wonder if this is a universal greed.

The modern music industry is entirely built upon the idea of middlemen seeking rent from other people’s work. They have a long history of trying to screw over musicians and customers for a little extra cash flow; them going after distributors as well tracks with all the other greedy and self-defeating shit they’ve pulled over the years.
