Shill is a cute word, reminds me of all the time I've spent reading anti-science articles and comments, who use it as a code word for "someone I don't agree with yet can't prove wrong". You can listen to thousands of releases from this year alone that have no connection to record labels. You're talking about not wanting to be a shill for record companies, yet you still want to turn to them for music?

Look, something the younger generation doesn't understand is getting ahead doesn't require anyone to sit, down, shut-up and be complacent. There is money to be made and innovation to create in rebelling and fighting against things.
And that is something that is more prevalent throughout the music world today than it ever has been.
