I think maybe he cast the net a bit too wide. WWW was okay for Derek Brimstone - he was a name and there was a general interest in what he did, and some demand.

However I was offered and went on WWW. Theres not much interest in my music, I'm fairly unknown and thus virtually no demand. Can't give the stuff away.

I think probably the only way forward in the UK is the road Park Records is taking. they have have their old stars rota, whch presumably gives them a little financial leeway to invest in newer names like Ruth Nottman. Also it gives them bargaining chips with the powers that have to be bargained with.

I think maybe the 'Come All Ye' approach though very altruistic worked against WWW ultimately. made it difficult to see how they were going to carve a niche for themselves in the marketplace. A noble experiment, by decent people. I hope they don't lose too much money, and think of a way of taming 'the beast', that our music business has deveoped into. Sometimes you have to make mistakes just to get the mistakes over, and see the path before you.
