Prince Competes On Design

The artist yet again known as Prince will release 3 albums in 2009. The interesting part is he will use no record label, aka publisher.

Since all media is under strict government control in USA, by one means or another, the market is highly distorted, and naturally corruption follows. Nonetheless, innovators break through when exposure of corruption occurs, or innovation intervenes.

The payola scandal of the late 50's allowed an opening for the British bands to get into the mainstream USA market along with soul music. Deregulation lite of the internet has foiled the lockdown of the music and book publishing industries. Not sure how long the freedom will last, but right now, it is a great time to be starting a publishing business.
