MUSIC: Managing A Band Versus Managing A Record

People might get this misunderstood...

If your company owns an album like a CD / LP or whatever and it's on distribution that's NOTHING like playing in a band.

That's all business and ads at the record store.

Once a company has an album listed on distribution owning the album has nothing to do with the band, they only get low royalties anyway.

Running an album at the record store is like a business on the internet, there's no band involvement at all..like book publishing.

That's why I laugh when I see all the "album listings" on the internet when no major chains even have the files in their company data base and to load them on to Spotify is 50 million lines of text to go with the pictures and art.

People think they can just start selling cds on the internet but they can't because the print and text takes so long to load.
