Thats always happened though.When one band gets a bit of success in any genre record companies would throw themselves at bands that did the same sort of thing.I can remember in the mid 90s any band that sounded remotely grungy or britpopish getting record deals.
I just don`t see how people can think that music on the internet is a bad thing 'because a few crap bands get popular'
