Unless you've changed your argument?

i believe i stated subpop seemed to sign anyone who wanted to release something around seattle. my thing was always about junkie bands getting signed to a major label (sorry if i wasn't super clear). that is, unless subpop has grown to be considered one of the major players...
CQ - when i made the comment about earnings i meant while the bands were all active. nirvana produced immediate results for their label. i'm not talking posthumous revenue from courtney love selling off rights to tunes. they signed in april and were massive by october. from the get go nirvana proved they were more than a seattle band, unfortunately most of the other grunge bands were really just seattle bands.
