Thank you Universal!

For once the Music Industry has done something to benefit the buying public.

Of course they did not mean to, and they will probably come to regret it mightily, and it was not the WHOLE Music Industry, just the largest symbol - Universal.

What did they do you ask? Well, they have finally 'released' NIN (Nine Inch Nails) from their contract (probably due to his constant disagreements with them about his fans 'rights' and that the Label does not play fair See: Q & A with Trent Reznor of NIN)

To see Trent's announcement (while it's not replaced by a new post) go to the official NIN Website.

Keep your eyes open, this could be the start of something BIG! (IMHO)
