It must be true that music downloading is making the record labels go broke, or at least they can no longer afford decent web design; in order to prove this market perception, go take a look at Epicrecords.com, with its close to only text presentation, lots of Google ads and only god knows what other thing.
Epicrecords.com, by the way, is the record label responsible for Duran Duran, Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, so they should make enough revenue to afford an ad-less site. Plus the site in itself does not hold much stuff, rather when you try to see a video by one of the label artist’s, it directs you to musicbox.com, however there is a Lilliputian mobile area where to get mobile content, and a news areas where you can check out when and where the label’s artists are playing, but you can’t buy tickets from the site; in order to do that you’ll have to go back to your search engine.
