Why do musicians fight the establishment?

I see this a lot and especially in the underground urban market. Acts will write tracks and rant on the stage about their hate for the music establishment. Phrases like 'not giving us the recognition' 'ignoring the underground market'. To me it doesn't make sense. Why put down the one thing that can help you more than anything else?

The US, UK argument over music has been going on an eternity. UK's anger toward the US for restricting their exposure is common. It seems we are not getting the coverage we need and are always beaten to the deals by the Americans. The simple truth is that the US market is bigger and thus there is more money to be made. Money is after all what the music business is about, right?... more about that in a minute.

MySpace is a funny thing. In a few years it has gone from nothing to the largest music network and one of the largest social networks in the world. There is a lot of controversy over what people think of MySpace. Many people look down on it as some cheap form of promotion or a way to waste your life clicking away. Other people see it as a great networking tool, meeting people, socialising and keeping in touch with friends. Either way you look at it is very hard to ignore the popularity of MySpace.
