| [Nettime-bold] Microsoft fights to promote indie bands |
Brenner Adams, product planner for the Microsoft Xbox game Amped, on why the company is using the music of small-label bands and paying them little or nothing for the rights: "We're not saying, `Hey, we want to use your music for nothing,' " Mr. Adams said.
