IMO there won't be record labels in a few years, there just won't be any need anymore due to the internet. Trent Reznor's realized this, and has done some interesting things with distribution. His new album Ghost's I-IV "...amassed $1.6 million in sales" even though he's released his entire album in high quality digital for $5! How? Through collector's editions and vinyls and what not....
