Who on the DG label is covering the cost of recording and paying DG 10% of their concert fees? I personally know one person who absolutely is not.
I would be very surprised to find out that *any* of DG's marquee artists are paying anything to DG for either recording costs or a percentage of their concert fees.
And then what's left? Newbes and wannabes? Which of them have the cash sans an established career to finance a DG recording session?
I am skeptical of this scheme. I am skeptical that it would work for the artists in any way and I am skeptical that anyone other than a few suckers who were badly represented by their management or didn't have management in place took this deal with DG.
And if they did manage to sucker any artists into this lose lose deal i am confident that it would be a one and done. No resigning.
