Gnutella News - Cd Baby reports on itunes meeting re: indy music.

Gnutella News has a report about the recent Indy music conference/meeting with Apple. It looks to me like Apple is trying to be fair about how they deal with Indy labels. I'd be really excited to see some of this music on the iTunes store. With the Indy labels, then I would have access to almost all the music I listen to between Apple's iMusic, and emusic Here is a quote from the article:
I got an invitation to go to Apple's office for a presentation/meeting today (June 5, 2003) about how to get independent artists into the iTunes Music Store. There were about 150 people there, representatives from the best independent record labels and music services, in this invitation-only conference room. Steve Jobs came out and started a two and a half hour presentation/seminar/Q&A about iTunes and the benefits of independent labels making their music available there. I type fast and had my laptop, so I wrote down all the major points of their presentation as they went.
