Re: [microsound] re: pay to play

: Hey, if they can get away with it, I guess it's alright, that doesnt mean 
: you or I have to agree with it, also doesnt mean you have to go and give 
: your money to the event. Personally I see it as a two way street, by doing 
: the pay to play deal it gives small labels a chance to be scence by a larger 
: mainstream audience, but I dont really think the more mainstream people 
: really are interested in a lot of the microlabels out there. I have never 
: been to Sonar, so I cant really say anything positive or negitave about it. 
: Probably people trying to make some cash and set up a fun show. With a name 
: like Sonar the promotoers have leverage in that its a popular event, so its 
: kinda like media placement in a magazine or newspaper, advertisers have to 
: pay to place, so maybe sonar is really a big advertisment for labels???
: 
: just my 2 cents.
