Talk:List of RIAA member labels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Who made this list? Shouldn't it be rechecked "a bit" for wrong links? warpozio 10:33, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Some of the wrong links have been cleaned up but this list is still a nightmare. The original article is just a dump of the list from RIAA.com with every label name blindly linked. There's not even enough information in the source list to resolve some of the abiguities. For example: One of the labels in the source list is "Perspective". I assume this refers to Perspective Records, now defunct, but there's also a Perspective Music label out there. Is there any way to know which one belongs on this list without doing some original research? --squirrel 14:22, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Besides the wrong links, the RIAA has a reputation for claiming "members" who never joined the RIAA and may not support them at all. A list of members from the RIAA itself may not be reliable. --Reuben 09:46, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lets ask RIAA-Radar

Perhaps we could email RIAA-Radar and ask if we can use their list. Their list is probably almost 100% accurate, and is certainly better than the RIAA's list. The only thing is it may mean wiping the current list and replacing it with RIAA-Radar's data. Plus they'd need to say yes. Comments welcome! --h2g2bob 01:34, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
