It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

The "benefit" DG offers is that THEIR name is on the CD, too...

Just for the record, all the releases on my JMR label were funded by me, and zero by the artists.

The "benefit" DG offers is that THEIR name is on the CD, too. DG is not setting up shop to start putting out recordings by anyone who can scrape up the money to get a master file recorded and mastered. (Florence Foster Jenkins, Part 2,134)

One presumes and one presumes that the potential customers will assume that because an artist is being put before the public by the legendary label DG, that there has been a "gatekeeper" function, and that the artist has to be top-drawer, top-shelf, or at least top-something.

If that gatekeeper function breaks down (or is in effect non-existent), then, we can expect two things:

(1) Critics and listeners will eventually catch on; and

(2) Norman Lebrecht will dance the hornpipe nude, on DG's grave.

ATB,

JM
