>>>>And although a band can get onto MP3.com, it lacks the community aspect of Napster. You can't get a buzz going.
It just a matter of perception. You are comparing the old mp3.com and the new mp3.com. You are also comparing the old Napster and the new legit Napster (where it also lacks the community aspect).
>>>>No, an individual group circulating demo tapes is not an indie label. Ask an invidual group circulating demo tapes.
But the whole point of the indie trade group is to provide indie labels and indie musicians --- info, group discounts on where to rent studios, back up singers, pressing 500 cd's at a time, ... That's what this indie trade group does for a living ---- they are trying to get a group discount on the cd copy-protection technology for their members. So if you are making a bunch of demo tapes and demo cd's, and if you want this technology --- you can pay this group discount fees instead of negotiating with the silicon valley companies directly.
