...wave of consolidation in the industry may make sense for the suits, but it's not clear that it benefits the artists. Some acts like Radiohead and Prince have recently bypassed labels - and the tremendous cut of profits they typically take - altogether.

But the third wave of marathon runners behind them had it even worse: By then, emergency crews and empty water cups made finishing the race almost impossible.
