It's not a knee-jerk flame. It's how the industry works. You get signed
by one of the major record labels (most of the smaller ones are jus
subsidiaries of the big ones). Then the record label proceeds to take
just about every last cent earned and put it to their own use.
Perhaps you should read things twice. I don't like having to type them
twice.
