Drive-Thru Records -- should I sign the dotted line?

http://www.drivethrurecords.com/

A major tries to make a million with a one-off album, but the independent labels treat ya like family no matter what; do they not? Is it worth getting paid for what you love doing? Or is fame something to aim for as well? Bring in the big bucks and lose respect for selling out. Or gain a loyal ever-increasing following of fans until you become so popular you're not cool anymore. Or lay low being true to your art, sneak in and out of each town, gain respect from those who know, making just enough to make you happy doing what you like to do?

Things to consider. Which way to go?

Anyone know much about Drive-Thru Records? Any and all info is appreciated. Thanks!

If you already have a commercial enough sound, then I would say just go hit the big time. shrug

Like, if you're writin pop records, go make some pop money!
