I knew that people look down on it for moving in a more mainstream direction, but I didn't know that they actually fucked people over. Can anyone provide any links to info, Google has failed me.

More of this sort of thing is good.

No matter how honest a label is they're always going to come across a band that isn't satisfied. I've not heard much negativity towards Earache. Roadrunner, on the other hand, have been slammed continuously since they were Roadracer Records, and with all that plus these bullshit re-issues I think we know what their main goal is...

True, but then you look at what bands like Napalm Death and Carcass had to say about them, it looks like not many people know about it.

I'll have to do more digging, I suppose...
