Sony to start gay & lesbian record label.
Um, maybe I am missing the point here, but why can't gay & lesbian musicians continue to be on the same record labels as everyone else? This seems like a bad idea to me. On the one hand, it would be a clear label gay people could look for when shopping for CDs, but on the other hand, it could also be a clear label that could prevent other people from buying the CDs. "Hey, don't buy that, that's from that queer record company!" "Shoot, yer right Virgil, I don't wanna support no faggots!"
I don't see why gay or lesbian artists would need to be segregated onto their own label. It seems like it would marginalize their work. But maybe that's just me.
