Rumor: Music labels want to create Hulu for music videos (Download Squad)

Jan 22nd 2009 12:11AM I think the point here, is that major labels need to catch up to the internet. As TVGenius said above, it's reactive. There has been nothing preemptive by the "majors".

Become partners with someone, or just shut up. It's as simple as that. You don't see smaller, independent labels complaining about the free publicity and continued adoration of fans. I'll tell you the reason: major labels are losing money left and right (and have been for years). They are meekly trying to recover, and this is just their next venture to claim stakes. Does their claim stand up in court? Sure, absolutely. Does it stand the test of time, users, and listeners... nope. Sorry guys. Learn to use the internet, until then, you look like someone's little sibling crying in the school yard.
