They want to make money like every other artist.

By having the label screw them out of money?

There's an interesting book written by a drummer {I'll be damned if I can remember the name of it right now} from a fairly good band and he mentions that on tour the record label rep would take them out to dinner every night and take others out to dinner with the band and always pay with a credit card from the label, it was later explained to him that the label puts aside certain bits of money for each band and that money was used to pay off the credit card, literally speaking he was feeding them {and others, not to mention himself} with their own money without them knowing about it.

I'd prefer to see bands make it, without record labels.
