I don't think that this article adequately sums up how superior listening to indie music makes me feel. I mean, sure, this article is full of pretentious bullshit, but it's just not enough. Get a Pitchfork writer to add some of his pseudo-intellectual semantics, and then maybe we'll have something going. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.10.48 ( talk) 15:36, 11 April 2008 (UTC) No-one has EVER used the term the way this article does. Not since the mid 90s anyway. So we're defining a term as it was used 10 years ago....? Ok so some kids think that they're noteworthy for not liking major label music; but do they use the term consistently to describe any independent music? I doubt they do...
And PS i want to congratulate wikipedia for being so easy to format. I'm being sarcastic BTW; you complain about multiple edits yet it's impossible to start a new paragraph... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.136.28.193 ( talk) 03:43, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
Don't get cocky. We all understood you. 174.50.216.137 ( talk) 19:20, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
I've been told that, once an artist is signed to a major label, he or she is no longer "indie". They must record solely on an independent label to be indie. 76.126.15.78 ( talk) 18:50, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
I wish. I don't think a lot of people agree with us on that. The Of Mice and Men page still proudly describes them as indie, even though they're signed with Universal Records. By that metric, Justin Bieber is indie - he started out solo on Youtube, so, ya know, indie forever. 174.50.216.137 ( talk) 19:24, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
