Having the backing of 'something' with some money (record co or otherwise) makes the funding of those limited editions and merchandise for the '1000' easier for bands. its ok for the likes of radiohead et al do crow about bucking the system - they built their success and money on the back of the traditional industry. there's a middle way somewhere...
