Well, the thing is 'indie' as it applies to music means both without labels and with indie labels.

And I'd echo what another said... I'd not buy someone's cd without a label behind them without hearing them first, and more to the point, I can't think of the last time I heard an indie band that was good that hasn't managed to be picked up by SOMEONE.

Maybe we need a new type of indie publishing houses to make indie writers more respectable. Heck if I know.. I've never across an indie writer that I've ever cared for (that being said, I've not tried a TON... but I'm sufficiently gun-shy at this point!)

Well.. there was this guy who was writing a story online in chapters like.. 10 years ago. I enjoyed that. I don't know if I would now.
