Talk:List of artists signed to Magnatune

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Define "signed"

Does this count only artists who are currently releasing new work via Magnatune? I know Bjorn Fogelberg released one album via Magnatune (but also via other means) but apparently that was a one-time thing. Given that Magnatune is different from the traditional "record label" in many different ways, maybe this article should be renamed to "List of artists currently releasing new albums via Magnatune" or similar. --Shawn K.

What's the point of having an artist list in Wikipedia that will always be incomplete and out of date? Are the catalogs of iTunes, HMV, and Amazon encyclopedic too? I would replace this list with a few notable artists based on some criteria such as: the first artists who gained high Magnatune sales in their genre, the most famous artists who've agreed to be sold on Magnatune, or artists who began their career on Magnatune and since became mainstream.
