they are owned by the big companys and i suppose some people see that as "selling out" or "siding with the 'man'" but in the end, those corporations have the money and resorces to help bands record and not all metal bands (alternative more to the point) arn't so limited by the company, they make all their money off of fabricated crap like the Spice Girls, Nsync, Backstreet Boys and Avenged Sevenfold so they leave most of the alternatives to their devices (not to say they dont do it from time to time but it is their money afterall)

the ones, that take good artists with potential and ruin them, and chain them to a stereotype, or a played out image thats "popular" to the masses. those coporate-owned labels

I don'T know if there are really "bad" things that happened to music. It all seems very subjective...and even then I am not sure if any of those things you people mentioned not happening would improve my musical experience...
Shouldn't you be blaming the "artists" for allowing it? Record companies can't change those who won't change, and those who change for those reasons aren't "artists".
