Really good interview - I've added the book to my Amazon wish list. I'm not sure that I fully buy into the idea that artists don't need record labels any more - I think they do, at least until radio stations are willing to do what they're supposed to do: play music that the DJs think is good. Radio still gets a lot of listeners - I heard in 2008 listeners actually grew in number - and I sometimes hear new singles on the radio before I hear them elsewhere. I can count on one hand the number of artists that I've purchased CDs from due to discovering them only online - I think that part of the system has to evolve more...and it will.
